Resumo: In this article I present an anthropological analysis of well-being, focusing on the students from Angola that arrive to study in Lisbon’s universities. This study is not concerned with the measuring of objective indicators of well-being, but relies instead on the student’s own subjective evaluation of it. While acknowledging that the prospect of improving their living conditions is still a major motivation for most of these students, my intent is to also consider the importance of the pursuit of emotional well-being as a relevant factor for emigration. The article analyzes the relationship between motivations and subjective well-being, while taking into consideration the social and economic condition of these emmigrants.

Admitindo-se a importância da motivação económica como aspeto fundamental para a explicação das migrações internacionais, procura-se, no entanto, complexificar esta análise, colocando a questão do bem-estar no centro da discussão a respeito da decisão de emigrar. Trata-se, portanto, de compreender a relação entre motivações e bem-estar subjetivo, sem colocar de parte a análise da situação socioeconómica dos emigrantes.Instituto de Ciências Sociais da Universidade de Lisboa2013-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.31447/AS00032573.2013208.07https://doi.org/10.31447/AS00032573.2013208.07Análise Social; Vol. 48 N.º 208 (2013); 660-6822182-29990003-2573reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revistas.rcaap.pt/analisesocial/article/view/23359https://revistas.rcaap.pt/analisesocial/article/view/23359/17382Direitos de Autor (c) 2013 Análise Socialinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAntónio , Manuel2024-02-24T06:10:48Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/23359Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:30:45.160265Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
