  Lusophone mobilities: between past and present, which future?

  6th Conference of the Portuguese Association of Anthropology - panel T047

  This panel is meant to discuss these migrating populations’ mobility procedures in lusophone countries, while seeking to construct through the different presentations a broaden mosaic of reflexions about when and how these populations have moved, and how they have used and instrumentalized the "imagined" and politically constructed idea of a "lusophone community".

  Migrations and exiles

  One of the 20th century's main features was the large movements of people abandoning their places of origin for economic, political and social reasons. Migration-fostering conditions, like the search for sufficient means of subsistence, escaping from armed conflict and political and religious persecution, are intensified by economic crises and the advent of authoritarian Governments. In the host countries, emigrants, exiles and refugees form associations, publish periodicals, hold commemorations and foster socialisation tools, which make them a group with a national identity and/or a specific political positioning. Concomitantly, they undergo acculturation, as a result of their inevitable adjustment to the new reality, translated into the activities they perform and the structure of the relations they keep with the host country.

  Portugal, opposition and exiles

  Land of exile and exiles

  Centré sur la question de l'exil, ce colloque veut reconstruire la maille structurelle tissée par les exilés portugais dans les différents pays d'accueil. Il s'agit d'identifier les réseaux, de répérer des solidarités, de mettre en lumière les relations entre les noyaux, d'analyser leur pensée et les discours politiques, etc. Le cadre géographique est le Portugal, dans sa double altérité : terre d'exilés transformée après 1974 en pays d'accueil. La dimension comparatiste est introduite dans ce colloque par l'ouverture à d'autres exils.
