Description

Abstract:
The historiography of modalities and trajectories of human mobility has engaged with imperial and postcolonial perspectives, highlighting the erstwhile and lingering connections between the former colonies and their European metropoles. Areas of former Portuguese presence in Africa are no exception to the rule. This special issue places coerced and voluntary migrations, and the socioeconomic, political, and cultural connections that emerged over time in a long-term regional African perspective. This publication brings together contributions on micro- and meso-histories of South-South migrations and diasporas with an emphasis on population movements, narratives, identities, and practices in empire and the post-colony.
A historiografia das modalidades e das trajectórias da mobilidade humana tem se envolvido com perspectivas imperiais e pós-coloniais destacando as ligações antigas e duradouras entre as antigas colónias e as suas metrópoles europeias. As áreas de antiga presença portuguesa em África não são excepção à regra. Est especial coloca as migrações coercivas e voluntárias, e as ligações socioeconómicas, políticas e culturais que surgiram ao longo do tempo numa perspectiva regional africana a longo prazo. Esta publicação reúne contribuições sobre micro e meso-histórias das migrações Sul-Sul e diásporas com ênfase nos movimentos populacionais, narrativas, identidades e práticas no império e na pós-colónia.
