Despertando em novas terras: imigrantes portugueses e suas articulações locais e transnacionais na construção do anarquismo no Brasil (1899-1920)

This article aims to analyze the influence of Portuguese immigrants, as well as their political and social networks, in the construction of anarchism in Brazil since its establishment until the 1920s. militants in the Portuguese community of the Brazilianlabor movement, as well as in revolutionary syndicalism and among anarchists: Joaquim Mota Assunção, Neno Vasco and Tércio Miranda. We hypothesize that Portuguese linguistic and cultural elements favored the construction of organizations that united Portuguese immigrants at first, but this did not exclude efforts for unions with the traditions of local struggles and also with other foreigners. This tendency was influenced by the ideologies gestated by the internationalist tradition and also by the transnationalist practice of the Portuguese agents or their descendants, building common class spaces between different countries.
