Portugueses En Brasil En El Siglo Xx
Resumen del Libro
Helpful but uneven overview of Portuguese migration to Brazil, 1888-1970, by leading economic historian. Dual emphasis on causes and patterns of emigration and on Portuguese presence in Brazilian arts, with glimpses of social history of Portuguese businesses, associations, and families in Brazil. Identifies three periods: boom (1888-1930), decline (1930-50), and revival (1950-70). Indispensable for its tables alone, which display statistics from censuses, offical reports, and secondary literature –Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
