- França, Oem Country Report, 05Publication . Marques, José Carlos Laranjo; Góis, Pedro; Candeias, Pedro; Ferreira, BárbaraA emigração portuguesa para França tem estado presente na história nacional nos últimos 100 anos, não sendo algo novo para os portugueses. Os anos 60 e 70 foram marcados por uma emigração em massa de portugueses para este país, tendo França sido o principal país de destino da emigração portuguesa durante vários anos. Após a revolução dos cravos, França mantém sempre valores bastante elevados no que respeita o fluxo de entradas de portugueses, especialmente em modalidades migratórias como o reagrupamento familiar e a emigração sazonal. Após a crise económica de 2007/2008 a emigração portuguesa para França volta a intensificar-se, embora com valores inferiores a outros países europeus. Enquanto a emigração portuguesa para este país era maioritariamente composta por baixos níveis de qualificação e de formação e por uma participação em setores de atividade pouco prestigiados, no século XXI, começa a assumir uma maior diversidade de perfis formativos e educacionais.
- Is the Segmented Skill Divide Perspective Useful in Migration Studies? Evidence from the Portuguese CasePublication . Marques, José Carlos; Candeias, Pedro; Góis, Pedro; Peixoto, JoãoBoundaries among social scientists continuously challenge the scope for obtaining broader reaching views. This constitutes the case for migration studies, generally perceived as interdisciplinary and correspondingly gathering contributions from many social scientists with diverse disciplinary background. For example, many practical and institutional boundaries separate those studying so-called voluntary and forced migration. The same sub-disciplinary division also applies to the study of highly skilled migration. Even when treated as part of overall migration, highly skilled migrants are viewed as so specific that their study must not be mixed in with other migrants. The main aim of this paper involves discussing the relevance of this divide between high and less skilled emigration, trying to understand which aspects place them in the same framework and which facets separate them out into isolated categories. Rather than discussing the issue in general, our purpose is to put forward evidence about sociodemographic profiles, migration strategies, and the integration processes of high and less skilled emigrants moving in the same context in order to systematically compare these groups. The context chosen for such a comparison is Portugal at the beginning of the new millennium: a country that witnessed a strong upsurge in emigration over recent decades in which high skilled and less skilled emigrants both coexisted. The data analysed in this article results from a large-scale survey applied to Portuguese individuals who left the country in the new century.
- New Emigration and Portuguese Society: Transnationalism and ReturnPublication . Peixoto, João; Candeias, Pedro; Ferreira, Bárbara; Oliveira, Isabel Tiago; Marques, José Carlos Laranjo; Góis, Pedro; Malheiros, Jorge; Madeira, Paulo Miguel; Schiltz, Aline; Ferro, Alexandra; Santana, EugénioThis chapter addresses the theme of transnationalism and return in recent Portuguese emigration, namely the flows that occurred after the turn of the century. It starts with a brief theoretical overview on those topics, which constitute two relatively neglected characteristics of Portuguese emigration. Next, based on a survey carried out in 2014–2015 to more than 6000 recent emigrants, it reveals some of the links that they maintain with their home country, as well as their plans for the future, which include settlement in the destination country, return and re-emigration. Lastly, it examines data on returning emigrants – especially those that returned between 2001 and 2011 – extracted from the 2011 Census. The evidence reveals a significant number of returns, including individuals at both working and retirement ages and at all skill levels, thus exposing the unexpected complexity of movements. The results are based on the research project “Back to the future: new emigration and links with Portuguese society” (REMIGR), which aimed to ascertain the extent and characteristics of the new emigration wave. The project included an overview of emigration and return to and from all regions of the world, as well as case studies in UK, France, Luxembourg, Angola, Mozambique and Brazil.

- Portuguese emigration to Angola (2000-2015): Strengthening a specific postcolonial relationship in a new global framework?Publication . Candeias, Pedro; Malheiros, Jorge; Marques, José Carlos Laranjo; Liberato, ErmelindaOutflows to the Portuguese-speaking countries, although not dominant, played an important role in the growth of Portuguese emigration during the economic recession and austerity period, between 2010 and 2016. This chapter examines this migration process, considering that contemporary migration from Portugal to Angola is an example of reverse post-colonial migration within the framework of North-South movements. It presents the historical and socio-demographic background of Angola and some theoretical insights on the issue of North-South migration. The analyses of the migration process and the emigrants’ profiles rely in statistics and academic literature but especially on data gathered in a direct survey. Attention is given to indicators of integration, relations with Portugal and the post-colonial nature of the process. The profile of Portuguese in Angola shows an overrepresentation of highly skilled males over 35 years old, which migrated for professional reasons and sustain relations with Portugal through diverse transnational practices. This supports explanations for the emergence of North-South migration by appeal to economic expansion associated to the increasing insertion of several developing countries into global networks. However, the analysis fails to back up the hypothesis that Portuguese emigration to Angola is a form of reverse post-colonial migration based in ancestral return.
