Migrations Museums: A Journey Through the Itinerary of National History
| Resumo: | In Portugal, migrations constitute a phenomenon that, due to its permanence and dimension, is one of the fundamental elements to comprehend the country’s social history. Because of its relevance, it becomes indispensable to consider it not only in a demographic but also economic framework, as well as the cultural changes it introduces. It is crucial to consider the time and the space as determinant variables of the migratory route. A diachronic perspective enables the articulation between national and international conjunctures, which are necessarily associated and produce different configurations in each epoch. The alterations that occur in the meantime aren’t always immediately detected and only a retrospective look consents the understanding of many of the situations responsible for mobility. The title, which refers to migrations in a museological perspective, implies the consideration of various aspects (even if succinctly), which are specific of each and every theme and the way they interrelate. Their treatment in a museum space enables the transmission of essential knowledge to a wider audience. |
