ABSTRACT Contrary to what has been indicated by previous sources, Portuguese migration to Rio de ~aneirofrom 1822 to 1850 was a significant aspect of the cityrs history. During the first half of the nineteenth century, many Portuguese fled the difficult economic and social conditions in Portugal for better economic opportunities in post-independence Brazil, which was experiencing a boom that was fuelled by such comodities as coffee. The capital of the mpixe, Rio de Janeiro was the most affected by this prosperity. In particular, its retail commercial çector attracted many immigrants £rom France, England, Spain, Italy, Germany, and most especially from Portugal. A majority of Rio's migrants worked in the retail and wholesale sectors. The arriva1 of Portuguese migrants was facilitated by the fact that they were mostly well received by the Brazilian government and elite, who wanted to create a "whiten nation, while still continuing to import thousands of Africans every year. Portuguese immigrants served these ends, as they were arriving in large numbers and did so over a long period of tirne, virtually without any state sponsorship- Yet, the Portuguese sometimes faced hostility and aggression £rom the population at large, as a consequence of the nationalism which arose from Brazilian independence, and the fact that they were regarded as cornpetition for jobs. Brazilians also blamed the many Portuguese shop-owners for the high cost of living in Rio. Yet, despite the presence of this hostility, most Portuguese immigrants in R~Ode Janeiro, adapted well to their new environment. They married or developed relationships with local people, bought properties in Brazil, and most did not IV. return to Portugal. 1. INTRODUCTION II. TEE LITERATURE III. THE IMMIGRANTS IV.

INTRODUCTION Portuguese migration to Brazil has always been a significant aspect of ~razilianhistory. Since the early years of colonisation, Portuguese settlers migrated to Brazil in order to assert their control over the new land. The exact number of the Portuguese who settled in Brazil during the colonial period is uncertain. What is known is that Portuguese settlers made up most of the white population of Brazii during the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. For instance, Azorean couples played a significant role as frontier settlers in southern razi il during this period. The Portuguese Crown sent these migrants to establish a settlement at Santa Catarina in the late 1600s. More Azoreans arrived in the 1700s in order to serve the same purpose: settling areas in southern Brazil which were in constant threat from the neighbouring Spanish.1 Passport books from the late eighteenth century also show that there was a constant flow of Portuguese to Brazil, migrants seeking to work in the most important centres of the colony.2 Portuguese migration did not stop after Brazil became an independent country. Large numbers continued to migrate to razi il during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. For instance, passport registers show that £rom April 1831 to May 1842, there were more than eighteen thousand Portuguese immigrants registered 1 H. B. Johnson. "Portuguese Settlement, 1500-1580," in Leslie Bethe11 (ed). Colonial Brazil (Cambridge, 1987), p. 35. 2 Arquivo ~istoricoUltramarino. Registo de Passaportes, 807/808, anos de 1791 a 1799. at Rio de Janeiro alone.3 From 1855 to 1922, it has been estimated that almost one million Portuguese arrived in razi il as immigrants .4 However, despite this fact, the Portuguese as an immigrant group have received little attention from Brazilian historians. This has been due to the Eact that the Portuguese were originally regarded by Brazilians as colonisers, rather than immigrants. It has also been a result of Brazilians' desire to turn their back on the colonising nation and forge ahead in new directions. Within this general picture of limited interest, the least studied period of Portuguese immigration has been the years between the declaration of Brazilian independence and the abolition of Brazil's slave trade (1822 to 1850). This was a period which saw many important changes occur in both Brazil and in Portugal, including the end of the Portuguese trade monopoly with Brazil, the eventual independence of Brazil, the rise of Brazilian nationalism, and an increase in Braziiian hostility towards the Portuguese. The following study will show that large numbers of Portuguese arrived in Rio de Janeiro from 1822 to 1850. These migrants were attracted by the vigorous economic expansion that was occurring in the city and were readily accepted by the 3 Arquivo Nacionai do Rio de Janeiro.

Brazilian elite who saw them as an easily accessible source of European immigrants who could 'whitenf the new nation. Yet, the general population of the city reacted negatively towards these newcomers. Still, despite this animosity the Portuguese adapted well and, generally, did not return to Portugal. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND The historical developments during the first half of the nineteenth century had a profound impact on the flow of Portuguese migrants to Brazil and on the environment these newcomers found in their new country. ~egimingin 1807 European events precipitated ~razi1ia.nindependence, one of a serious of crises that affected Portugal throughout the nineteenth century.

Ramos-Zayas And approved by _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May, 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Expulsions and Receptions: Palestinian Iraq War Refugees in the Brazilian Nation-state By BAHIA MICHELINE MUNEM Dissertation Director: Ana Y. Ramos-Zayas This dissertation examines the resettlement of a group of Palestinian Iraq War refugees in Brazil. In 2007, Latin America's largest democracy and self-proclaimed racial democracy made what it claimed was a humanitarian overture by resettling 108 Palestinian refugees displaced from Baghdad as a result of the Iraq War. The majority of them had escaped from Baghdad in 2003 and had been living for nearly five years in a makeshift refugee camp on the border of Jordan and Iraq. Utilizing a multi-method approach, this work examines how Brazil, with its long history of Arab migration, incorporates this specific re-diasporized group into the folds of its much-touted racial democracy, an important arm of Brazilian exceptionalism. In order to address the particularity of Palestinian refugees, and while considering pluralism discourses and other important socio-political dynamics, I engage and extend Edward Said’s framework of Orientalism by analyzing its machinations in Brazil. To closely assess the particularity of the resettled Palestinian refugees (but also Arabs more generally), I consider how already stereotyped Brazilians construct Palestinians in Brazil through an Orientalist lens.

Milby, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Melvin Adelman, Adviser Professor William J. Morgan Professor Sarah Fields _______________________________ Adviser College of Education Graduate Program Copyright by Susan P. Milby 2006 ABSTRACT Soccer playing style has not been addressed in detail in the academic literature, as playing style has often been dismissed as the aesthetic element of the game. Brief mention of playing style is considered when discussing national identity and gender. Through a literature research methodology and detailed study of game situations, this dissertation addresses a definitive definition of playing style and details the cultural elements that influence it. A case study analysis of German and Brazilian soccer exemplifies how cultural elements shape, influence, and intersect with playing style. Eight signature elements of playing style are determined: tactics, technique, body image, concept of soccer, values, tradition, ecological and a miscellaneous category. Each of these elements is then extrapolated for Germany and Brazil, setting up a comparative binary. Literature analysis further reinforces this contrasting comparison. Both history of the country and the sport history of the country are necessary determinants when considering style, as style must be historically situated when being discussed in order to avoid stereotypification. Historic time lines of significant German and Brazilian style changes are determined and interpretated.

    Legal Education in Brazil: the challenges and opportunities of a changing context Luciana Gross Cunha1 José Garcez Ghirardi2 Globalization and its multiple cross-border exchanges in virtually every area of human life has led, in the legal arena, to a growing demand for global lawyers, that is to say, for legal professionals capable of proficiently thinking and practicing Law from a global, rather than local, perspective (FLOOD and SOSA, 2008). The demand for such professionals is the result of specific tension that has surfaced between the organizational mesh of legal systems, which are founded on the national State and sovereignty within defined geographical borders, and the transnational (borderless) vocation that characterizes the social, political and economic dynamics of globalization (SILVER, 2009). If the economy and trade, over a long period, have already incorporated the international context as an intrinsic element into its thought-process and its practice, the same cannot be said for Law, which continues to operate on the territorial-national basis which characterizes the institutions that materialized during the rise of the Modern State. Law‟s predominantly local approach struggles to meet the demands of a world that some label a „post-State‟ (HORSMAN and MARSHALL, 1994). As it undeniably remains, nonetheless, a vital instrument to design and drive the economic means that characterize a globalized world, Law has come under significant pressure to change its workings, institutions and dynamics. 1 Coordinator of the Center for Judicial Applied Research and Full-Time Professor at DIREITO SP.
