Managing African Portugal
Cape Verdean and Mozambican Women's Literature
In Mozambique and Cape Verde, writing in Portuguese by African women has directly engaged political reconstruction by denouncing colonial oppression and embracing national freedom. This article addresses the recent history of Lusophone African women's fiction, which has been pivotal in inscribing the intimate arena of sexuality and motherhood into power relations and has also revealed ways in which the domain of violence intersects with private l…
From Silence to Silence
This article engages the cultural continuities that bridge a colonial past of famine with a present context of emerging food vulnerabilities in the urban peripheries of Cape Verde. Merging a historical and ethnographic lens, this work interrogates: Is the present silence about food vulnerability different from past silences regarding famine?

En busca de San Juan y el retorno de los inmigrantes al Cabo Verde rural
Centrado en la revitalización de las fiestas de San Juan en un pueblo de la isla rural de São Nicolau (Cabo Verde), este artículo destaca cómo esta tradición es coproducida y preservada -por quienes se quedan y quienes se van- en un esfuerzo orquestado para despertar el deseo de retornar. Estos eventos no solo ayudan a mantener las relaciones de los migrantes con su país de origen, también aseguran sus inversiones y regalos. Este artículo discuti…
