Brazilians in London: Ideology, Social Class, and Motivations for Migration, Settlement, and Return

Abstract: The United Kingdom now boasts the largest Brazilian population in Europe (Margolis, 2013) but so far the processes behind this relatively new migration stream remain under theorised (Kubal et al., 2011).. In response, this article analyses the relationship between class, capital and ideology.

“…A migração brasileira para Londres, por exemplo, sugere que, embora o acesso ao capital econômico tenha sido mais democratizado, há diferenças acentuadas na destinação que os migrantes dão a esse capital, quer devido a diferenças relacionadas à sua classe social ou ideologia (Robins, 2019). Essas diferenças de classe social podem ser reproduzidas no exterior, o que promove diferenças educacionais de proficiência da língua local, da educação como um todo, afetando por fim sua integração social.…”
