Marta Nunes Silva (SILVA, Marta) is a researcher at the Institute of Contemporary History at the NOVA University of Lisbon, and has a PhD in Contemporary History from the same institution (2022). Due to her research work carried out individually or as part of collective projects, she has extensive experience working with central and local archives, as well as with the practice of oral history and ethnographic fieldwork. The projects she has developed are linked by the studies of mobilities and migrations (human smuggling and legal or irregular migration) and by the need to understand social relations and changes in rural areas within the framework of rural studies, especially during the 20th century. Interdisciplinarity is a feature common to all of them. MNS works in the Humanities and Social Sciences (Anthropology, Sociology) with an emphasis on History. She has focused on the study of power relations in agrosilvopastoral and asymmetrical societies, and on the collection and analysis of oral memories from the persecuted, subaltern or forgotten of history. She is a member of national and international networks on rural studies, migration studies, oral history and environmental history.
