Resumo: | The exile penalty has been widely used by the portuguese justice over the past centuries. The exiled were forced to cross the Atlantic in the direction of Brazil, Africa and Asia, where they fulfilled the punishment. The constant sending of large human contingents to colonial territories demonstrates the interests that the Crown had in removing the criminals from the metropolis. However, it can be an indicator of other objectives, such as the population and effective possession of the places where they were destined. This reality caused variations in the fate of the exiles according to the times and the needs that the Crown had in different periods. Thus, several authors agree that the sending of exiles to the colonies was aimed at occupation, defence, settlement and contribution to miscegenation in these territories. Through this research work, we seek to carry out a comparative study where we highlight the differences between the sending of exiles to the South American and African colonial territories. We also seek to get to know these individuals seeking to know their social status, profession, crime, age, marital status, place of birth, destination of exile and time of sentence. It was also our intention to analyze how the process of sending these individuals overseas was carried out, the time between the condemnation and their departure, how they were shipped, who was in charge of taking them to their destination and who guaranteed their survival during the trip. |

Los desterrados se veían obligados a cruzar el Atlántico en dirección a Brasil, África y Asia, donde cumplían el castigo. El envío constante de grandes contingentes humanos a los territorios coloniales demuestra el interés que tenía la Corona en sacar a los delincuentes de la metrópoli. Sin embargo, puede ser un indicador de otros objetivos, como la población y la posesión efectiva de los lugares a los que eran destinados. Esta realidad provocó variaciones en el destino de los desterrados según las necesidades que la Corona tenía en diferentes períodos temporales. Así, varios autores coinciden en que el envío de desterrados a las colonias tenía como objetivo la ocupación, la defensa, el asentamiento y la contribución al mestizaje de estos territorios. A través de este trabajo, pretendemos realizar un estudio comparativo donde destaquemos las diferencias entre el envío de convictos a los territorios coloniales sudamericanos y africanos. Buscamos, también, conocer a estos individuos y averiguar su estatus social, profesión, delito, edad, estado civil, lugar de nacimiento, destino de la deportación y momento de la condena. Asimismo, queremos analizar cómo se desarrollaba el proceso de envío de estos individuos al extranjero, el tiempo que transcurría entre su condena y su partida, cómo eran embarcados, quién se encargaba de llevarlos a su destino y quién garantizaba su supervivencia durante el viaje.This initiative was supported through the Multiannual Funding of the Landscape, Heritage and Territory Laboratory (Lab2PT), Ref.
