- Portuguese emigrants and the State : an ambivalent relationshipPublication . Marques, José Carlos; Góis, PedroSince the 19th century Portugal has been a country of emigration. As a result of this continuous outflow, estimates indicate that the number of Portuguese citizens and their descendants living in another country is between 2 and 4.8 million. The main countries of residence are, in the Americas, the United States, Brazil, Canada, and Venezuela, and, in Europe, France, Switzerland and Germany (taken together these seven countries concentrated 90% of all the Portuguese living abroad). After a brief description of the Portuguese emigration history, with a special emphasis on current emigration flows and the development of Portuguese communities in different host countries, the paper will analyse the relationships that Portuguese citizens abroad maintain with their country of origin. In the process of shaping these relations the Portuguese political institutions and the legal framework built to mould the connections that Portuguese emigrants maintain with the Portuguese State will deserve a special attention. As will be shown, the Portuguese State and its political elites had, particularly during the last decades, manifested a discomfort in dealing with contemporary emigration flows and with the Portuguese communities abroad. This attitude towards emigration leads to an ambivalent position both by the Portuguese State vis-à-vis Portuguese citizens living in other countries and by the emigrants towards their homeland.

- Migrants’ chances or choices in a sub-protective welfare regime?Publication . Valadas, Carla; Góis, Pedro; Marques, José Carlos LaranjoEven more intensely since the recession, employment conditions deteriorated, and welfare systems continued their reforming processes. Southern European countries saw their labour market situation worsened. Immigrants were one of the social groups more affected by high unemployment, informal and precarious working conditions. The article focuses on the main groups of immigrants in Portugal (Brazilians, Ukrainians and Cape Verdeans). It aims to test if and how, depending on their different forms of insertion into the labour market and relationship with the social protection system, these groups of immigrants coped with massive unemployment and precarious working conditions in different ways. According to the country of origin, weak/strong networks, secure/insecure position at work or personal circumstances, they could either choose to stay, re-emigrate or return to their origin countries. Empirical analysis is based on focus groups with unemployed immigrants, an online survey, and statistical data analysis. Findings suggest that, in a highly segmented labour market, under a weak and fragmented social protection system, the migrants’ individual decision is induced by the social structure, and not so much by individual agency.

- Imigrantes em Portugal: uma síntese históricaPublication . Baganha, Maria Ioanis; Góis, Pedro; Marques, José CarlosO texto descreve a evolução da imigração em Portugal, desde o processo de descolonização aos nossos dias. Para efeitos analíticos este período foi subdividido em três. Os movimentos migratórios do primeiro período são atribuídos ao processo de descolonização e subsequente necessidade de clarificação de pertença nacional; o segundo à entrada na CEE, que motivou a atribuição a Portugal de avultados fundos estruturais de coesão e abriu a economia ao exterior; o terceiro à favorável conjuntura económica que o país viveu e ao modelo de desenvolvimento adoptado. A cada período correspondem populações imigrantes com origens nacionais, perfis demográficos e socioculturais diferentes.

- Retrato de um Portugal migrante: a evolução da emigração, da imigração e do seu estudo nos últimos 40 anosPublication . Góis, Pedro; Marques, José Carlos LaranjoForty years ago, Portugal was a country of emigration that had some immigrants. Today it is a country of migrations. Between the return or repatriation of many Portuguese nationals and the reception of hundreds of thousands of foreigners, national demography gained diversity and complexity. Without immigration, we would be numerically less, and we will be poorer and older. After the announced end of emigration, we have gone through several cycles of emigration and return. Migratory outflows have never ceased to have social and sociological consequences. After all, emigration is more structural than we believed. The dynamics and diversity of the origins of migrants to Portugal, but also the multiple geography of the destinations of Portuguese emigrants represent the position change in the global migration system. Portugal is not (yet) a center, but it is (no longer) a periphery (or perhaps it still is, for some emigrants). Nationality law has evolved alongside more or less inclusive ideologies, and extended the number of citizens who are a part of the national community. Portugal is now a country in movement, full of migratory dynamics. This portrait allows us to foresee a future full of challenges regarding integration and diversity management.
