Resumo: This research aimed to understand how the social practices of Brazilian immigrants in Denmark are organized in the composition of their everyday lives in response to the immigration laws of that country. We employ a practice-based approach using Michel de Certeau’s concept of practice, which considers that people can reinvent their everyday life through tactics and strategies embedded in their ways of doing things. In this context, we associate the matter of power apparatus, a concept worked by Michel Foucault, with the concept of propriety, worked by Pierre Mayol. The empirical research used ethnographic research for a period of approximately twelve months in Denmark through participant observation of the daily activities of Brazilian immigrants already established in the country and semi-structured interviews with 15 participants. As the main contributions of this research, we first highlight the theoretical contribution that the social practice of immigration occurs at different moments in the daily life of an immigrant, from their arrival in the host country to aging in the local society. Regarding the practical contributions of this study, it is important to consider that immigration practices are a phenomenon composed of tactics, strategies, and resistances organized based on the relationship between practitioners and apparatus, which can also be conveniently operated by propriety. Empirically, the study advances in the recognition and understanding of the organization of the community of Brazilian immigrants in Denmark.

En este sentido, empleamos un enfoque basado en la práctica, en el que recurrimos al concepto de práctica de Michel de Certeau, que considera que la gente común puede reinventar su vida cotidiana a través de tácticas y trucos incrustados en sus formas de hacer las cosas. En este contexto, asociamos la cuestión del aparato de poder, concepto trabajado por Michel Foucault, con el concepto de concepto de conveniencia trabajado por Pierre Mayol. En cuanto a la investigación empírica, para la ejecución de este estudio se realizó una investigación etnográfica por un período de aproximadamente doce meses en Dinamarca, a través de la observación participante de las actividades cotidianas de los inmigrantes brasileños ya establecidos en el país, y entrevistas con guión semiestructurado a 15 participantes. Como principales aportes de esta investigación, destacamos en primer lugar el aporte teórico de que la práctica social de la inmigración se da en diferentes momentos de la vida cotidiana de un inmigrante, desde su llegada al país de acogida, hasta su envejecimiento en la sociedad local. En cuanto a los aportes prácticos de este estudio, también es un avance considerar que las prácticas de inmigración son un fenómeno compuesto por tácticas, estrategias y resistencias que se organizan a partir de la relación entre practicantes y aparatos de forma convenientemente. Empíricamente, el estudio avanza en el reconocimiento y comprensión de la organización de la comunidad de inmigrantes brasileños en Dinamarca.Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo geral compreender como as práticas sociais da imigração de brasileiros na Dinamarca se organizam na composição do seu cotidiano em resposta às leis de imigração daquele país. Nesse aspecto, usamos uma abordagem baseada na prática, por meio da qual recorremos ao conceito de prática de Michel de Certeau, que considera que pessoas comuns podem reinventar o cotidiano com a ajuda de táticas e astúcias incorporadas nas suas formas de fazer, que são as práticas cotidianas. Associamos a questão de dispositivos de poder, conceito trabalhado por Michel Foucault, com o conceito de conveniência, trabalhado por Pierre Mayol. No que pese à pesquisa empírica, para a execução deste estudo, fizemos uma investigação etnográfica por um período de aproximadamente 12 meses na Dinamarca, por meio de observação participante de atividades cotidianas de imigrantes brasileiros já estabelecidos no país e entrevistas com roteiro semiestruturado com 15 integrantes da pesquisa. Como contribuições principais desta pesquisa, destacamos, primeiramente, que a prática social da imigração ocorre em diferentes momentos do cotidiano da vida de um imigrante, desde sua chegada ao país anfitrião até seu envelhecimento na sociedade local. No que diz respeito às contribuições práticas desse estudo, também é um avanço considerarmos que o ato da imigração é um fenômeno composto por táticas, estratégias e resistências que se organizam com base na relação entre praticantes e dispositivos de forma conveniente. Empiricamente, o estudo avança no reconhecimento e na compreensão da organização da comunidade de imigrantes brasileiros na Dinamarca.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2023-08-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/8919610.1590/1679-395120220107Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 21 No. 4 (2023); e2022-0107Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 21 Núm. 4 (2023); e2022-0107Cadernos EBAPE.BR; v. 21 n. 4 (2023); e2022-01071679-3951reponame:Cadernos EBAPE.BRinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporenghttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/89196/84619https://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/89196/84109https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessYamamoto, Gabriel do CarmoIchikawa, Elisa Yoshie2023-10-30T17:00:18Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/89196Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebapehttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/oaicadernosebape@fgv.br||cadernosebape@fgv.br1679-39511679-3951opendoar:2024-05-13T10:00:34.015349Cadernos EBAPE.BR - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
