Abstract
The author first presents some basic historical material relevant in an overview of immigration to this, the largest of South American countries (pertaining to the period from the first Spanish and Portuguese conquistadors and the import of African slaves to contemporary labour immigration in the conditions of capitalist commodity production). He especially treats the beginnings of immigration from Yugoslav countries and attempts to evaluate the size of immigration flows, i.e. of immigrant contingents in the va¬rious time periods examined. At the end of the paper, he indicates the data from the Research Programme on International Migration to Latin America (IMILA) which pertains to Brazilian immigrants from Yugoslavia (1980).
