Summary: | This paper analyzes the shared insertion of Umbanda and Capoeira practices in Portuguese territory, based on an ethnography performed in a Umbanda temple and a Capoeira group in northern Portugal. This study also investigates how this demograph and their leaders applied common strategies of fixation in Portuguese society and benefited from common conjunctural and historical factors in their transnationalization processes. In an attempt to understand the unfolding of these phenomena, we utilize the concepts of counter-colonization and Afro-Lusophone circular spaces. |
