“The word ‘Machu Picchu’ makes me very uncomfortable”
The paper examines the racialization processes experienced by a group of university students identified as Latin American, Latino, and/or Afro-Latin American in Spain. Through ethnographic work conducted in higher education spaces, the research identifies three coping strategies for dealing with racialization experiences. The first occurs when participants are aware of these processes and the resulting racism, recognizing that it goes beyond phen…
Decolonizing migration studies
Población migrante de origen senegalés y venezolano en la prensa on line argentina
Este artículo analiza la construcción mediática de dos grupos de inmigrantes no tradicionales en la Argentina, senegaleses y venezolanos, quienes presentan proximidades y contrastes dignos de considerar. Recurrimos al Análisis Crítico del Discurso (ACD) aplicado a dos periódicos de alcance nacional, La Nación y Página 12, con posturas ideológicas muy diferentes, y que poseen ediciones digitales. El análisis cubre el periodo 2016-2023, abarcando d…
In‐betweeners’ in turbulent times
This Special Issue (SI) brings together a selection of articles connected by the interplay of two main concepts or ideas. The first one refers to the fact that we are living through increasingly unstable and challenging times, defined by a succession of ‘turbulences’ that are often characterized as overlapping and interconnected ‘crises’ – a so-called era of ‘polycrisis’ with implications in multiple domains (Henig & Knight, 2023). In this global…
Who cares? Civil society organizations as healthcare life vest for migrants in post troika Portugal
In Southern European societies such as the Portuguese, family and civil society play a relevant role in welfare policies, acting as complementary or supplementary 'safety-nets' to the state. In times of crises, migrants' access to healthcare is not only questioned but put at risk. This paper unveils the specific roles played by Civil Society Organisations' (CSOs) in providing healthcare to migrants in the aftermath of TROIKA in Portugal. By categ…
Multicultural Diversity in the Spanish Public University
This article presents the preliminary findings of an ethnographic study about the presence and experiences of students of Latin American origin in Spanish universities. Our aim is to better understand the self-identification and ethnoracial formation processes observed in university-level students. We first reviewed the statistics on students with non-Spanish nationalities enrolled in public Spanish universities. We then analyze how the self-iden…
The cost of ‘care’ in neoliberal academia during the Covid-19 pandemic
The literature shows that throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, in the different regions of the world (Europe, Africa, Asia, North America and Latin America), women academics submitted fewer articles and grant proposals than their peers who are men because, in addition to the increased burden of domestic work, they devoted more time to teaching activities and to the demands of students, than to their research activities. However, little is known abou…
Exploring cultural policies in Southern Europe from the lens of conviviality in contexts of super-diversity
Experience of discrimination during Covid-19 pandemic
Refugees and other migrants who had more difficulties in accessing health care and preventive measures against COVID-19 infection experienced worse mental health and increased discrimination. These negative effects appeared to be stronger for those with more insecure housing and residence status, highlighting from one side the specific risk of insecure housing in the impact of COVID-19 upon mental health and infection protection, and for another …
Having a family is the new normal”
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has made explicit the burden of care shouldered by academic mothers, in addition to juggling their scholarly commitments. Although discussions are abundant on the impact of caring responsibilities on the careers of women academics, neoliberal academia continues to minimize such struggles. Despite the disruptions to family routines caused by the health crisis, academic institutions have expected academic mothe…
Articulações entre vida pessoal, familiar e profissional no contexto das instituições de ensino superior e científicas
As desigualdades de género na academia neoliberal têm vindo a ser abordadas através de diferentes perspetivas : articulação entre vida privada, familiar e profissional ; divisão desigual do trabalho administrativo ; expectativas dissemelhantes em relação ao trabalho emocional ; assédio moral, entre outros. A pandemia exacerbou estas desigualdades, ao mesmo tempo que trouxe novos desafios para as docentes e investigadoras. A implementação do model…
Mental Health of Refugees and Migrants during the Covid-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic is a defining global health crisis of our time. While the impact of COVID-19, including its mental health impact, is increasingly being documented, there remain important gaps regarding the specific consequences of the pandemic on particular population groups, including refugees and migrants. This study aims to uncover the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of refugees and migrants worldwide, disentangling …
Impacts of Covid-19 on refugees and immigrants in the United States
The COVID-19 crisis has increasingly exerted a disproportionate impact on the lives of migrant populations. A group of interdisciplinary migration experts convened a round table in June 2020, to discuss the numerous challenges faced by immigrants, refugees, and migrants in the United States. The discussion revealed many social inequities, including insufficient financial and social resources, non-existent or minimal health supports, lack of or in…
Venezolanos en Argentina, Estados Unidos y Portugal
En este artículo proponemos que la reciente migración venezolana es una diáspora en proceso de construcción. A partir de observación participante y entrevistas con informantes clave e inmigrantes venezolanos residentes en Argentina, Estados Unidos (Florida) y Portugal, sostenemos que tanto la experiencia común de la crisis humanitaria en el país de origen como la realidad transnacional compartida, contribuye a que los venezolanos en el exterior c…
Entre la agencia y el estigma
Este artículo explora cómo las intersecciones de género, raza y nacionalidad inciden en la experiencia migratoria y en los procesos identitarios de brasileños/as residentes en Santiago de Chile. Para ello, aplicamos un análisis Biográfico-Interseccional a sus trayectorias migratorias obtenidas a través del método de los relatos de vida, entrevistas en profundidad y fotohistorias (fotografía participativa). Este análisis sugiere que la corporalida…
Superdiversity, migration and use of internet-based health information – results of a cross-sectional survey conducted in 4 European countries
Our findings indicate the need to consider migration background and language competency when promoting the provision of healthcare services via the Internet so that information and services are widely accessible
It's the First Barrier” – Lack of Common Language a Major Obstacle When Accessing/Providing Healthcare Services Across Europe
International migration is shaping and changing urban areas as well as impacting on healthcare access and provision in Europe. To investigate how residents of superdiverse neighborhoods put together their healthcare, we conducted qualitative interviews with 76 healthcare providers and 160 residents in four European cities - Bremen, Germany; Birmingham, UK; Lisbon, Portugal and Uppsala, Sweden, between September 2015 and April 2017. A common theme…
After encounters
Purpose Research has long focused on the notion of access and the trajectory towards a healthcare encounter but has neglected what happens to patients after these initial encounters. This paper focuses attention on what happens after an initial healthcare encounter leading to a more nuanced understanding of how patients from a diverse range of backgrounds make sense of medical advice, how they mix this knowledge with other forms of information an…
If there were doctors who could understand our problems, I would already be better
How people in community settings describe their experience of disappointing health care, and their responses to such dissatisfaction, sheds light on the role of marginalisation and underlines the need for radically responsive service provision. Making the case for studying unprompted accounts of dissatisfaction with healthcare provision, this is an original analysis of 71 semi-structured interviews with healthcare users in superdiverse neighbourh…
Healthcare bricolage in Europe’s superdiverse neighbourhoods
The nature and severity of health concern, trust in physicians and agency shaped residents' bricolage tactics. The concept of bricolage enabled us to make visible the actions and resources utilised around public healthcare systems that would otherwise remain outwith healthcare access research. Actions were frequently undertaken via networks offering insights into healthcare-seeking behaviour
Making Gendered Healthcare Work Visible
Healthcare has long been a gendered enterprise, with women taking responsibility for maintaining health and engaging with service providers. Universal healthcare provision notwithstanding, women nonetheless undertake a range of healthcare work, on their own account and on behalf of others, which remains largely invisible. As part of a multi-method comparative European study that looked at access to healthcare in diverse neighbourhoods from the po…
Universalism, diversity and norms
Access to universal healthcare is a normative expectation of citizens in European welfare states. As part of a comparative study of healthcare in diverse European neighbourhoods, we met women who described failures of the public healthcare system, together with gratitude for that system. Challenges to European welfare states of ageing populations, the retraction of resources available for healthcare, and globalised migration streams have been lin…
Bricolage as conceptual tool for understanding access to healthcare in superdiverse populations
Portuguese policies fostering international student mobility
This paper explores policies on international student mobility to Portugal from within the Lusophone space, analyzing the cases of Angola, Cape Verde and Brazil. We argue that Portuguese strategies to attract international students respond to different demands and interests embedded in its geopolitical memberships. One the one hand, they respond to pressure from the European Commission to increase the internationalisation level within the Europea…
Access to healthcare in superdiverse neighbourhoods
Superdiversity and conviviality
International migration contributes to increasing cultural diversity in many European \ncities. Historically, migration studies have focused on the integration of immigrants \nforegrounding race/ethnicity and identity issues, limiting our understanding of intercultural \ndiversity. A new paradigm focusing on relational patterns among groups is \nemerging, highlighting the importance of mutual relations, interactions and influences \namong residen…

Integrating superdiversity in urban governance
This paper analyses how urban governance incorporated migration-driven superdiversity combining cultural and economic development policies. We use the case of Mouraria, a Lisbon neighbourhood, as a site where city strategies accommodate old and new diversities to render a cosmopolitan sense associated to a ‘diversity advantage’ approach. We identify three strategies shaping urban governance: de-ethnicisation of superdiversity and urban growth pol…
Engagement Policies and Practices
Immigration has certainly changed many aspects of politics and policies, and citizenship is one of them. Due to migration, both countries of origin and destination have been forced to look at citizenship with different eyes and both have gained interest in looking at migrants (both emigrants and immigrants) for different reasons. While countries of origin are designing engagement policies with the goal of strengthening ties to the diaspora, count…

Health providers as bricoleurs
This article examines the ways in which healthcare providers from a mixed economy of welfare operating in superdiverse neighbourhoods connect and innovate across the healthcare ecosystem to meet diverse and complex needs. Moving beyond a health systems approach which siloes different types of provision, we use the concept of bricolage to make visible the work undertaken by providers across the ecosystem. While we show that public, private and civ…
Redes sociales de los brasileros recién llegados a Portugal
Hoy en día la inmigración es un tema de conversación e interés tanto para los ciudadanos comunes como para los académicos. La inmigración no es un fenómeno nuevo, ya que es parte de la historia de la humanidad, pero la era de la globalización parece haber traído un nuevo cariz al tema. La facilidad de comunicación, la difusión de las noticias a nivel internacional, la masificación del turismo y la accesibilidad de los viajes internacionales, los …

Deconstruyendo al inmigrante latinoamericano
Las migraciones latinoamericanas hacia la Península Ibérica han experimentado un fuerte crecimiento durante las dos últimas décadas. En este contexto, los estados español y portugués han implementado políticas que construyen al inmigrante latinoamericano como un extranjero excepcional, subrayando una supuesta compatibilidad cultural como garantía de una mejor integración social en la sociedad receptora. El tratamiento político y legal diferenciad…

Migraciones trasatlánticas y globalización
El objetivo de este texto es contextualizar la inmigración latinoamericana a Portugal, que presenta características de diversos sistemas migratorios (ibérico, latinoamericano, lusófono) usando como ejemplo el caso de los brasileños. Este caso revela, por un lado, la compleja relación que Brasil y Portugal tienen como consecuencia de las antiguas relaciones coloniales y de las múltiples migraciones en ambos sentidos; y, por otro, la influencia y m…

Aceitei fazer a recensão deste livro com um duplo propósito: por um lado, ler novamente e de forma integral o que já tinha lido (e citado) tantas vezes ao longo dos últimos anos, devido ao meu trabalho de investigação em curso sobre a imigração brasileira em Portugal; por outro, identificar os contributos, leia-se vantagens e desvantagens, que a obra tem para oferecer hoje, em 2011. O primeiro esclarecimento que deve ser feito é que o livro concr…

Understanding healthcare practices in superdiverse neighbourhoods and developing the concept of welfare bricolage
BACKGROUND: Diversity in Europe has both increased and become more complex posing challenges to both national and local welfare state regimes. Evidence indicates specific barriers for migrant, faith and minority ethnic groups when accessing healthcare. However, previous studies of health in diverse cities in European countries have mainly adopted an ethno-national focus. Taking into account the new complexity of diversity within cities, a deeper …
Mobilidade científica e imigração qualificada
O propósito deste breve artigo é introduzir o debate sobre a mobilidade científica e a imigração qualificada, recorrendo a uma revisão bibliográfica minuciosa que problematiza de forma crítica a complexidade do fenómeno, considerando seu aspecto multifacetado e as distintas variáveis envolvidas em sua configuração. Mais ainda, chama a atenção para temas que via de regra são invisibilizadas nessas discussões : desigualdades raciais, de género e as…
Can stigma become a resource? The mobilisation of aesthetic–corporal capital by female immigrant entrepreneurs from Brazil
The proportion and visibility of Brazilian women and particularly the specific images of Brazil and Brazilians in the Portuguese imaginary have contributed to the construction of new versions of stigma and stereotypes surrounding them. Mainstream images of Brazilian women have incorporated prejudices about the sensuality of Creole women who are reminiscent of the Portuguese colonial imaginary. Starting from this stigmatised image, we show how Bra…
