This book addresses a notable gap in the knowledge of Portuguese colonial administration and the policies implemented in the main territories of its ""third"" African empire: Angola, Mozambique and Guinea. In recent years, the question of colonial taxation has become a topic in the academic debate on colonial empires and has led to a comparative, long-term focus on its impact in African societies. Given that former Portuguese colonies in Africa have been largely absent from this debate, this bo...

This volume explores the different aspects of the management of death, dying and mortality by migrants in Southern Europe, through deconstructing persistent idiosyncratic beliefs, myths, narratives, silences, and constraints. It focuses on migrants from diverse geographical and cultural backgrounds in Portugal, Spain and Italy. It also includes reflections on Madagascar, Guinea-Bissau, East-Timor and Cuba. The thirteen chapters provide insights into epistemological issues, the trans-national circulation of bodies, spirits and rituals, migration, the placing of the dead and diverse funerary practices and perspectives. Privileging a multi-sited approach to death and migrations, this book draws on oral, archival and published sources to give visibility to populations that often live in liminal structural positions and transient worlds. By exploring the multifaceted dimensions of death and suffering among immigrant populations, it refocuses the debate on migration in Europe and beyond by highlighting under-researched issues such as end-of-life care, mental health, death, burial, cremation, funerary ceremonies and symbols, repatriation and martyrdom.

O profícuo legado documental, bibliográfico e fotográfico de Jill Dias (1944-2008) foi doado pela família à Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas da Universidade Nova de Lisboa, que delegou no CRIA – Centro em Rede de Investigação em Antropologia, a sua gestão. O CRIA empenhou-se na sua inventariação, catalogação e divulgação com o apoio da Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, que subsidiou o projeto Jill Rosemary Dias: acervo documental, bibliográfico e fotográfico com vista à concretização desses objetivos. No âmbito desse projeto foram publicados os livros Cadernos de Jill Dias: Inventário de um Arquivo / The Jill Dias Notebooks: Archive Inventory (Lisboa, CRIA, 2011), que inventaria o seu fundo documental depositado no CRIA, e As Lições de Jill Dias: Antropologia, História, África, Academia / The Jill Dias Lessons: Anthropology, History, Africa, Academy (Lisboa, CRIA, 2013), que reúne os contributos de uma homenagem de colegas e estudantes com o mesmo título realizada na Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian (2012), que também patrocinou as atividades e publicações.
