Caroline Brettell is professor and chair of the department of Anthropology, Southern Methodist University. She is a specialist on migration and on Portuguese culture and society.
There is not a bad chapter in this book, but Brettell's work really
shines in her discussion of agency/structure in her comparative
analysis.

interested in Portuguese studies.
*CHOICE*
This book is refreshing as it underscores the centrality of
Portuguese colonialism and emigration for debates concerning
transnationalism, ethnicity, and identity. It will undoubtedly be
of interest to academics and students interested in migration
studies, history, and interdisciplinary methods for data collection
and analysis.
