Portugal wurde lange Zeit vor allem als klassisches Auswanderungsland wahrgenommen. Über zwanzig Jahre nach dem Beitritt in die Europaische Union richtet sich die Aufmerksamkeit jedoch zunehmend auch auf die Einwanderungen. Die sozial- und kulturwissenschaftlichen Beitrage dieses Bandes nehmen beide Perspektiven portugiesischer Migrationen in den Blick. Sie beschaftigen sich sowohl mit dem Wandel als auch mit den Kontinuitaten der Migrationspraktiken und -diskurse. Damit erschliessen Sie neue Zugange zum Verstandnis der Komplexitat des portugiesischen Migrationsgeschehens in historischer und aktueller Perspektive.
