| description | This essay discerns the changing location of the Portuguese as an ethnic group and the marketing of saudade as «A Taste of Portugal» in New Bedford, MA – a town known as the «capital of the Portuguese in America». The analysis takes into account the restructuring of global capitalism, the decline of the local economy, the retrenchment of Portuguese transmigration and ongoing neo-liberal policies. It examines the relations between the restructuring of the global economy and migrants´ transnational mobilization, including the impacts of the remodeling of the Portuguese nation and its transnational practices on this American south coast region. |
