- Regresso e circulação de emigrantes portugueses no início do século XXIPublication . Oliveira, Isabel Tiago de; Candeias, Pedro; Peixoto, João; Azevedo, Joana; Malheiros, JorgeO principal objetivo deste artigo é avaliar a importância do regresso de emigrantes portugueses durante a década de 2001-2011, tendo em conta o volume do regresso, os perfis sociodemográficos, as variações por países de emigração e a emergência de novas formas de mobilidade. Um objetivo particular consiste em produzir uma tipologia das formas de regresso: algumas mais associadas à visão tradicional da emigração na idade ativa e regresso na fase da reforma, outras indiciadoras de movimentos de tipo diferente, com regressos mais precoces durante a vida ativa. A observação de dados recentes permite descortinar algumas das novas modalidades de emigração, incluindo uma tendência crescente para a circulação. This text’s main objective is to assess the importance of the return of Portuguese emigrants in 2001-2011, in the light of the number of people who came back, their sociodemographic profiles, the variations in the countries they came from, and the emergence of new forms of mobility. A more particular goal is to produce a typology of forms of return: some more associated with the traditional view of people emigrating when they are of working age and coming home in the retirement phase of their lives; others that suggest movements of a different type, with earlier returns while the returnee is still working. The authors also look at how an increase in complex mobility patterns can lead to a different pattern of returns. Recent data reveal some of the new mobility formats, including a growing trend towards circulation.
- New Emigration and Portuguese Society: Transnationalism and ReturnPublication . Peixoto, João; Candeias, Pedro; Ferreira, Bárbara; Tiago de Oliveira, Isabel; Azevedo, Joana; Marques, José Carlos; 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.
