Towards a Cartography of Portugueseness: Challenging the Hegemonic Center
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hundreds of thousands of Portuguese-born individuals and their descendants, permanently displaced across continents, represent themselves in both ethnic and diasporic terms. They speak at one and the same time of attachments to their original homeland, of transnational loyalties, and of a bonding with their new homes. In their efforts to interweave emotions, memories, and images of their homeland with the experiences in and attachments to their new geographical and cultural contexts, they articulate conceptualizations of diasporicity that increasingly challenge monolithic versions of “Portugueseness,” which until now have been produced exclusively in Portugal. While theoretical debates on the inclusive–exclusive character of diaspora continue to unfold (see Tölölyan; Safran; Schnapper), many relocated groups have already appropriated the term “diaspora” in formulating their own identity discourses. In using old attachments to forge new identities, the Portuguese-born abroad are composing new deterritorialized versions of what it means to be Portuguese in a world of expansive transnationalism.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
