    No full text
    This chapter will examine the academic models developed to understand cultural pluralism generated by global migration. The focus will be on how those models have engaged with multiculturalism as state policy and practice in North America and West Europe. Attention will also be paid to the relationship between multiculturalism and cosmopolitanism across an expanding European Union and the limited empirical research undertaken on everyday multicultural and cosmopolitan discourses and practices across the region

    Variations on the Author

    Full text link
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
