Coworker networks and the labor market outcomes of displaced workers: Evidence from Portugal
The use of social contacts in the labor market is widespread. This paper investigates the association between personal connections and hiring probabilities as well as re‐employment outcomes of displaced workers in Portugal. The hiring analysis indicates that displaced workers with a direct link to a firm through a former coworker are three times more likely to be hired compared to workers displaced from the same closing event who lack such a tie.…
All Hands on Deck: The Sea as an Object to Rethink Migrations. An Introduction
The thematic dossier “All Hands on Deck: The Sea as an Object to Rethink Migrations” proposes an approach to different ways of understanding migratory movements through their presence at sea. This dossier is part of the oceanic turn, its focus being the sea and its methodology removing the exclusivity of land marked by a visible border. Thinking about the complexity that the sea represents in the past and in the present, it allows a polychromatic…
Asymmetric Labor Market Reforms: Effects on Wage Growth and Conversion Probability of Fixed-Term Contracts
The authors investigate the impact of a change in employment protection laws in Portugal that increased the maximum legal duration of fixed-term contracts.

In addition, those workers who had their contracts converted experienced a significantly higher hourly wage growth at the time of conversion and f…

Introdução Num texto datado de 1986, o filósofo francês Georges Gusdorf, crítico acérrimo da especialização e grande defensor da interdisciplinaridade, fazia uma breve história do percurso das ciências, afirmando que o seu «processo de desintegração» datava do século XVII, acelerara-se no século XIX, para nos nossos dias a divisão dar lugar à «fragmentação» e a uma «verdadeira dispersão» que vinha sendo reforçada. Numa linguagem mordaz, Gusdorf a…
