New and Old Routes of Portuguese Emigration
This open access book offers a comparative overview on Portuguese emigration in Europe and outside the EU in times of recession. It looks at Portuguese emigrants who, after the crisis of 2008, moved both intra-EU, such as UK, France, Switzerland, Germany and Spain, but also into countries with historical links, such as the USA and Canada, and to Portuguese speaking countries such as Brazil, Angola and Mozambique, as well as the processes of return. In addition to the dynamics of movement, the book provides an in-depth analysis of the heterogeneity of this emigration. It deepens the multifaceted identities concerning social and professional pathways among highly skilled and less skilled emigrants. The labour market continues to be the main regulatory force of Portuguese emigration, which helps to explain the outflow and the processes of settlement and return. Nonetheless, this book demonstrates that non-economic factors have likewise been of great importance in the decision to emigrate. As such this book will be a valuable read to policy makers, students and scholars in migration.
O Regresso de Emigrantes no Portugal Contemporâneo

Desenvolvem-se nesta obra as perspetivas dos emigrantes quanto ao regresso e as experie?ncias de retorno daqueles que já regressaram ao país, aferindo-se ...
The Exclusion of Immigrants from Welfare Programs
In light of the increase in cross-border mobility and the recent political climate surrounding immigration-related issues, understanding the politics and policies of immigrants’ access to welfare programs is more relevant than ever. Systematic analysis of this subject has been held back, however, by the lack of a cross-national index of immigrant exclusion from social benefits over time. The Exclusion of Immigrants from Welfare Programs fills this gap by taking advantage of a novel and original measure called the Immigrant Exclusion from Social Programs Index (IESPI), which includes twenty-five indicators regarding immigrants’ access to seven different social programs, for twenty-two cou...
A mobilidade académica e a emigração portuguesa qualificada
Neste livro são descritas e analisadas opções de mobilidade e emigração individuais, que se incluem numa longa história que vem sendo escrita desde há séculos por muitos portugueses de diferentes gerações e qualificações que resolveram emigrar. As dificuldades de hoje são menores, os percursos são, regra geral, bem-sucedidos e revelam pessoas que encontraram forma de avançar e que tomaram as rédeas do seu destino. Estas opções individuais são, no entanto, também a expressão de que um mal profundo ataca a Europa, fazendo com que os mais qualificados dos países periféricos e semi-periféricos sejam atraídos pelos países centrais, onde estão disponíveis os recursos, deixando os países menos desenvolvidos entregues a uma economia carente de conhecimento e inovação. Ressoa no murmúrio das vozes dos que ouvimos e inquirimos uma experiência que anseia por ser partilhada e compreendida na sua plenitude.
