Abstract
PORTUGUEIS, Diane and ALVES, Cecília Pescatore. From environmental disaster to the formation of a migratory network: the case of Longarone and Urussanga. População e Sociedade [online]. 2023, n.40, pp.142-153. Epub Jan 20, 2024. ISSN 0873-1861. https://doi.org/10.52224/21845263/rev40v2.
The article brings experience and report of field research, which sought to understand the genesis of the constitution of a migratory network since an environmental disaster occurred in Italy, 1963. This configuration forged connections between Longarone in Northern Italy and Urussanga, in Southern Brazil, causing consequences that permeate the search for cultural ties, family rescue and propagation of Italian tradition aspects transposed by the economic dynamics engendered. The methodology used was Multi Sited ethnography (Marcus, 1995) and participant observation. The aim is to expose the repercussions of the establishment of such a network, which culminate in the displacement of Italian-Brazilians to work in Germany, changing the political, spatial and socioeconomic configuration of their hometown.
