“…Linked to this, it might also be that migrants sort geographically in areas where people are more tolerant towards them, introducing a possible endogeneity issue. In the Portuguese context in which the salience of immigration has been relatively low (Carvalho and Duarte 2020), it is important to highlight that the type of "outgroups" that has been most heavily politicised by Chega and its leader André Ventura have not been immigrants but indigenous Roma communities (ciganos) that have lived in the country for centuries but have traditionally been disadvantaged and living in marginalised social positions (M. Mendes, Magano, and Candeias 2014).…”

This chapter explores the electoral geography of Chega's support and the factors contributing to its success. Utilizing aggregate electoral data from Portuguese municipalities and parishes, I place the geographical distribution of electoral support for the radical right in Portugal within existing traditional patterns: Northern Portugal, with a history of small landowners, has leaned to the right, while the South, characterized by large landholdings, has traditionally leaned leaned left. Within this context, Chega gather higher levels of support in the South, particularly in Algarve and Alentejo. To shed some light on these patterns, I analyse economic and cultural factors. While economic grievances like unemployment and inequality may partially explain Chega's appeal in poor regions, cultural grievances have also been believed to play a role. The chapter shows that contrary to expectations, Chega support is not higher in areas with lower levels of education. However, analysing data from a range of recent elections I find a positive correlation between the Chega vote share, the size of the local Roma community and the percentage of foreign nationals.

This chapter presents an exploratory study about Roma communities, located in the municipalities of Torres Vedras and Figueira da Foz, to identify how entrepreneurial education has been taking place and how it can be improved by reflecting on which predictive skills of entrepreneurial success can be stimulated to this target audience in a non-formal educational context. From this point on, it aims to contribute not only to the development of a theory about entrepreneurial education, but also to awaken dormant or little stimulated potential, with the aim of triggering processes of human and socioeconomic development that reflect on the improvement of the quality of life of communities and society as a whole. In this sense, it aims to understand how entrepreneurial education, in a non-formal spectrum, can contribute to improving the quality of life of the Roma people.
