Migrações negras no pós-abolição do sudeste cafeeiro (1888-1940)

This article focuses on the migration of Blacks - former slaves and their descendants - from the Paraíba Valley to the metropolitan area of Rio de Janeiro, and its consequences, in the post-emancipation period. The goal is to evaluate the process beyond the dual system for explanation of migration: attraction vs. expulsion. We try to incorporate qualitative and demographic analysis of this experience through the intersection of different sources: civil records, census, oral interviews, and secondary literature.
