In this essay, the authors argue that although "South" and "North" are more and more becoming problematic categories in the social sciences, in general, and in migration studies, in particular, it still makes sense today to focus on South-South migrations. Not only because of its mere quantitative importance, but for a number of reasons. Firstly, new South-South migration patterns are observable and new data are becoming available. Secondly, South-South migrations still have a number of distinct features, including: the role of borders, the composition of migration flows, the migration-conflict nexus, regional migration governance, and the specific relationships with certain migration-related concepts and variables.The goal of this special section in the International Migration Review is to communicate scholarship which addresses the most significant and critical analytical issues pertaining the south-south migrations and mobilities. We proposed a number of broadly defined themes in the call for papers in late 2012: the relevance of current migration theories and social research methods for understanding the nature of transnational processes in south-south migrations and movements; causes and consequences of south-south
A EMIGRAÇÃO de brasileiros significa algo novo para um país formado historicamente como área de destino para imigrantes. Mais que uma mudança exclusivamente demográfica, essa transição representa um fato social e político que vem sendo progressivamente reconhecido. O trabalho considera o discurso veiculado na imprensa como uma das fontes de informação que permitem perceber tal mudança e analisa o noticiário referente aos brasileiros no exterior veiculado no Brasil durante o período de 2001 a 2005.

This contribution evaluates discourses present in the press as relevant sources of information for the social perception of this change. Thus, it analyzes news and articles about Brazilians abroad that were published from 2001 to 2005

“Muitos motivos me levaram a mudar de vida: em primeiro lugar, o fato de ser ‘nômade’, ou seja, de rom tornar-me ‘nômade’, tornar-me ‘cigano’, com todos os preconceitos, sobretudo negativos, que isto comporta. Quando estava em meu país, nunca tinha pensado em mim mesmo como um ‘nôm ade’. Não pensava em mim mesmo como um ‘cigano’: sujo, maltrapilho, ladrão. Por isso, quando cheguei na Itália, decidi trabalhar ativamente pelos direitos dos rom. Quero mostrar aos italianos que nenhum ‘cigano’ chamaria de 'cigano’ um outro rom ”. (D. M., rom macedônio).” [...]
