Death on the Move
This volume explores the different aspects of the management of death, dying and mortality by migrants in Southern Europe, through deconstructing persistent idiosyncratic beliefs, myths, narratives, silences, and constraints. It focuses on migrants from diverse geographical and cultural backgrounds in Portugal, Spain and Italy. It also includes reflections on Madagascar, Guinea-Bissau, East-Timor and Cuba. The thirteen chapters provide insights into epistemological issues, the trans-national circulation of bodies, spirits and rituals, migration, the placing of the dead and diverse funerary practices and perspectives. Privileging a multi-sited approach to death and migrations, this book draws on oral, archival and published sources to give visibility to populations that often live in liminal structural positions and transient worlds. By exploring the multifaceted dimensions of death and suffering among immigrant populations, it refocuses the debate on migration in Europe and beyond by highlighting under-researched issues such as end-of-life care, mental health, death, burial, cremation, funerary ceremonies and symbols, repatriation and martyrdom.
Migrantes e Saúde Mental. A Construção da Competência Cultural
Este estudo teve como propósito conhecer – através de entrevistas aprofundadas com técnicos de saúde mental e pacientes imigrantes – a forma como os serviços institucionalizados de saúde mental em Portugal dão resposta ao sofrimento e às necessidades da população a que se destinam. Através de encontros com técnicos de saúde e pacientes e da observação de diversas consultas, tentou averiguar-se o funcionamento dos serviços de saúde mental “culturalmente competentes”, bem como a percepção e a interpretação do fenómeno por parte dos diferentes actores sociais envolvidos.
