| Abstract | |
In the present thesis I investigate the Argentinean migration to São Paulo along the 70s. This corresponds to a migratory group of individuals who left Argentina mainly as a result of the political violence against the opponents of the military regime established in 1976. On the other hand, and just as a comparison to this first group, I deal with a new migratory flow of Argentineans to Brazil which appeared after the peak of the economic crisis triggered at the end of 2001. Through the reconstruction of stories, memories and migration trajectories of a group of Argentineans, now living in Campinas and São Paulo, who arrived in Brazil between 74 and 81, and some young Argentineans who have arrived after 2001 in São Paulo, I try to comprehend how these subjects reconstructed their identities based on sharing experiences considered crucial for redefining and reorientating their own individual trajectories. Through an approach that stresses action and social representation, I also analyze the ways by which these individuals bestow another meaning to their country, reappropriate and reelaborate the key narratives of the Argentinean nation and its national representation in the process of reconstructing their identities and interpreting their own experiences (AU) | |
