Travelling Policies:
Silva, Diogo Gaspar; Malheiros, Jorge; Cachinho, HerculanoSituating this Special Issue requires us to draw on relational connections and think through elsewhere. It fundamentally takes us back a couple of years to a series of convention centres, hotel conference rooms and a small restaurant in downtown Denver, Colorado – the host city of the 2023 Association of American Geographers (AAG) Annual Meeting. As a globally recognised forum of intellectual exchange, the AAG ...
Demography and migration: discussing the connection with an eye on the replacem...
Malheiros, JorgeBackground: Contemporary demography is marked by two characteristics with enormous impact on global social and economic processes: ageing [1] and migration, being the latter a major element of fast demographic evolution, something marked by higher speed and unpredictability [2]. Although the different countries of the world experience these processes at a different pace and in distinct stages, (international) m...

Silva, Diogo; Malheiros, Jorge; Cachinho, HerculanoSituar este Número Especial exige que nos apoiemos em conexões relacionais e pensemos através de outros lugares. Leva-nos, fundamentalmente, de volta a alguns anos atrás, a uma série de centros de convenções, salas de conferências de hotéis e a um pequeno restaurante no centro de Denver, Colorado – a cidade anfitriã do Encontro Anual da Associação Americana de Geógrafos (AAG) de 2023. Enquanto fórum globalmente...
Migration flows within a fragmented global north: (re)placing the nexus between...
Santos, Maria Teresa; Fonseca, Maria Lucinda; Malheiros, JorgeThe migration and development debate has traditionally been focused on the Global South, constructing a rigid division between a "developed Global North" and an "underdeveloped Global South". This article seeks to challenge this binary by situating the migration and development debate within the Global North. We argue that maintaining this North-South divide overlooks the effects of global capitalism in the Nor...
Regional development and non-territorial policies: meaningful evidence of a neg...
Madeira, Paulo Miguel; Vale, Mário; Malheiros, JorgeIn the period after the 2008 financial crisis, the European Union and Brazil experienced, respectively, periods of regional divergence and convergence. The research developed in these two territories brings new evidence on the importance of non-territorial policies, that worked as indirect regional policy, for these trajectories. In the case of the EU, (direct) regional policy was not strong enough to counterac...

‘Going to study or plan to stay on?’ Mobility profiles of Angolan and Cape Verd...
Alves, Elisa; King, Russell; Malheiros, JorgeAlthough a relatively small player in the global arena of international student migration/mobility (ISM), Portugal hosts an increasing number of international students, the vast majority of whom are from its former colonies. This paper shifts the debate on ISM away from the Anglophone world by examining the future mobility intentions and outcomes of students and graduates from Angola and Cape Verde who are or w...
The contemporary geographies of urban inequality: insights from Portugal and th...
Malheiros, Jorge; Silva, Diogo Gaspar; Júnior, Leandro BasílioThis chapter explores the problematics of contemporary urban inequality in Portugal, assuming a spatial reading where segregation plays a didactic role. The Lisbon Metropolitan Area (LMA) constitutes the empirical case that is framed in a brief analysis of the recent evolution of inequalities, underlining income in relation with other dimensions. The issue of inequality has become a focal point in academic and ...
Geografia Urbana: revisitando conceitos e temas
Santos, Otávio; Silva, Katielle; Malheiros, JorgeDe tempos em tempos, as disciplinas cientificas devem passar por revisão de seus conceitos e teorias, tendo em conta as constantes revoluções do conhecimento e as transformações do mundo social. No contexto da aceleração promovida pela Globalização contemporânea, em que as mudanças são cada vez mais intensas e vertiginosas, pôr a disciplina em atualização tem-se tornado urna tarefa fundamental para que o arcabo...
Segregação socioespacial urbana
Malheiros, Jorge; Madeira, Paulo MiguelA circunscrição ou mesmo o fechamento de determinados grupos sociais ou étnicos em zonas específicas das cidades, retirando-lhes o direito à mobilidade, limitando os seus laços sociais com os restantes membros da sociedade e impedindo-os de escolher onde viver e onde utilizar o espaço público, tem sido um processo que vem acompanhando a história da urbanização. Embora as cidades sejam uma mistura fascinante de ...
