Não Sou Perfeita

Num único minuto a nossa vida pode sofrer uma volta de cento e oitenta graus. Num único minuto, num único telefonema, a vida de Margarida foi abaixo, o seu namorado tinha morrido. A pessoa que ela tinha planeado uma vida foi-lhe tirada. Será que existe uma forma certa para fazer as coisas? Uma guideline para o luto? Margarida não é capaz de lidar com a saudade, com as memórias, com os comentários das pessoas. Ela tenta fazer o que é certo, mas o que é certo? As pessoas desiludem, como lidar com isso? As pessoas desaparecem, como lidar com isso? As pessoas mentem ou escondem, como lidar com isso? Apesar de todas as dúvidas ela tem a mãe e as amigas que a apoiam e vigiam, mas nem toda a gente que a vigia lhe quer bem. Uma história de força, de empoderamento e de amizade.

"Be naturalized", Report on Naturalisation in Portugal

Portuguese nationality law developed as a response to specific historical contexts, particularly influenced by the country’s colonial past. Due to changing patterns of migration, and increasing inward migration by a more diverse group of migrants, it was seen as necessary to overhaul the existing system for the acquisition, attribution, loss and re-acquisition of Portuguese nationality. The new law, passed at the end of 2006, reflects many of the recommendations made by policy experts in relation to nationality (Bauböck et al, 2006a: 32-4), including simplification and transparency of procedures, improved access for second and third generation migrants, the removal of differential access for migrants according to country of origin, and the organisation of a public campaign to promote naturalisation. The acquisition of nationality by migrants and their children is therefore seen as a fundamental aspect of immigrant integration policy in Portugal.

Star Clusters in the Era of Large Surveys

The symposium “Star Clusters in the Era of Large Surveys” was held in Lisbon on Sep 9-10 during the JENAM 2010. It served as a platform for discussing what and how recent, on-going and planned large-area ground-based and space-based surveys can contribute to producing a major leap in this research field, which has a strong European history. Scientific topics addressed included: cluster searches, clustered vs. isolated star formation, large-scale star formation, enrichment of the field population, structure, populations and evolution of the Milky Way, cluster dynamics (internal and within the Milky Way), variability of stars in clusters (from time-resolved surveys), analysis techniques for large samples and archiving. This proceedings book provides a snapshot of the ongoing discussion on the role of large surveys in star cluster research, and serves as a reference volume for the state-of-the art in the field.

China's Internal and International Migration

  • Publisher: Routledge

One consequence of China’s economic growth has been a massive increase in migration, both internal and external. Within China millions of rural workers have migrated to the cities. Outside China, many Chinese have migrated to other parts of the world, their remittances home often having a significant impact within China. Also, China’s increasing links to other parts of the world have led to a growth in migration to China, most interestingly recently migration from Africa. Based on extensive original research, this book examines a wide range of issues connected to Chinese migration.
