This  closed workshop is designed as an informal brainstorming meeting in  dialogue with the work of Professor Ann Laura Stoler, under the  following common, general, issues: What are the mutual interferences,  tensions, productivities, silences, ignorances, gaps, influences between  the empirical and conceptual specificities of studying the Portuguese  empire, and the wider international literature on the colonial and  post-colonial? How, in short, does the study of the Portuguese colonial  experience interfere with old and emerging theories of colonialism and post-colonialism?
