Portuguese structural emigration from the early fifteenth to the late twentieth century involved more than five million people, according to estimates by Vitorino Magalhães Godinho — an impressive number for a population which grew in that period of time from one to ten million.

However, Brazil became a country of emigration in the last decades of the twentieth century, and we can now talk about a Brazilian diaspora with a visible impact on many different countries, particularly the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Portugal.

This special issue of Portuguese Studies on the neglected subject of Portuguese structural emigration covers a wide range of approaches (such as sociolinguistic, sociocultural, sociopolitical, socio-economic, anthropological and literary), and will become a landmark that will serve to stimulate future research.
