Monica Ali’s In the Kitchen shows London as a cosmopolitan and postmodern city, a locus of transnational identities. Although this is not a new theme in contemporary English writing, in this novel the topic of migration is detached from the usual postcolonial loci that feature in “immigrant” or “diasporic” literature. In the novel Alentejo Blue, set in the South of Portugal, Monica Ali had already approached the question of migration from the point of view of the exiled citizen, whose situation is part of globalization processes outside of the normal push/pull (centre/periphery, east/west, north/south) conceptions of migration. The focus in the article is, thus, on the ways the new world order of economic globalization relates to the processes of immigration and the dispersal of a stable sense of individual and national identity.

Instituição administrada pela Misericórdia de Braga desde meados do século XVI, o hospital de S. Marcos tornou-se ao longo da Idade Moderna um importante local de tratamento ao corpo e de salvação da alma para doentes pobres, recebendo enfermos de todo o arcebispado, mas também de outras partes do reino e mesmo do estrangeiro. Os cuidados prestados ao corpo e à alma exigiam equipas de trabalho, a aquisição de bens e uma administração que fizesse cumprir as regras existentes. O nosso estudo procurará analisar as relações de sociabilidade existentes no interior do hospital, a aquisição de bens, nomeadamente para as enfermarias, a cozinha e a igreja, a alimentação dos enfermos, os cuidados médicos e a caridade dispensada a quem estava doente e era pobre. Pretende-se dar a conhecer o funcionamento e as vivências de uma instituição que, progressivamente, foi ocupando um lugar cada vez mais importante na cidade.

This study analyses the determinants of dispersion of economic issue mentions in European party manifestos. We examined three main economic domains (governmental control of the economy, free market capitalism and support for the welfare state) as consequences of globalization forces, economic conditions, partisanship and electoral turnout. Employing aggregate-level Comparative Manifesto Project (CMP) data from legislative elections in 15 European countries from 1970 to 2010, we confirm that parties hold a common view of the salience of economic control of the state as a consequence of globalization pressure and economic growth levels. Partisanship of the cabinets (regardless of the political orientation) counteracted issue salience concentration in the welfare domain. Government size favoured dispersion in the free market realm. Our results do not indicate clear homogenization of parties’ economic messages in elections over the last 40 years.
