Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine immigrant self-employment in Spain. The study aims to determine the likelihood of immigrants being self-employed, the differences between Spaniards and immigrants in terms of self-employment and differences among immigrants from different regions of origin. Design/methodology/approach – Data from the Labour Force Survey for 2005-2011 are used for a descriptive analysis of self-employment. Logit regressions allow us to study the determinants of immigrant self-employment. Findings – Unlike research conducted in other countries, the rate of immigrant self-employment in Spain is lower than that of nationals, although differences exist according to the region of origin. Men and older individuals are more likely to be self-employed. Those with higher levels of education are also more likely to be self-employed – this may be attributable to the decreased availability of skilled positions for immigrants. Research limitations/implications – The sample size does not allow for differential analyses regarding the region of origin or the existence and influence of enclaves. Practical implications – Self-employment may be an opportunity for immigrants to improve their position in the labour market, especially in the case of highly skilled workers. Originality/value – In Spain, analyses of immigrant self-employment are rare and generally focus on case studies. However, this study covers the whole population within a highly specific economic situation.

Abstract:
AbstractThe terrorist attacks in Madrid on March 11, 2004 were one of the most traumatic events in recent Spanish domestic history, and have had a profound influence in internal policy as well as determining the strategy of its foreign and security policy. In many sectors it has created a climate in which there are serious negative repercussions in the acceptance and integration of immigrants from Morocco, bearing in mind that most of the people detained and put on trial are from that country but were residing in Spain. However, if the March 11 terrorist attacks are an important factor militating against Moroccan integration in Spain, the truth is that for many years they have had greater difficulties in integrating into the host community than other immigrant groups. This paper argues that Spanish-Moroccan political relations constitute further factors that create special difficulties for Moroccan immigrants in their integration into Spanish society. In order to demonstrate this hypothesis, the paper first describes in section one the specific Spanish migration context, firstly from the demographic point of view, analysing the rapid change of Spain from an emigrant country to an immigrant country and the increase in foreign population over recent years and, secondly from cultural point of view when it discusses the already existing diversities among the different Spanish regions and, finally, from a legal point of view the paper studies the changeable and unstable Spanish law on migration. The main goal of this introductory section is to show the general problems of integration applicable to all immigrant groups living in Spain, including Moroccans. Secondly, in sections two and three, the paper attempts to examine the unequal treatment against Moroccan immigrants and argues that this situation is not only due to Spanish attitudes toward immigrants in general and the social, racial and religious characteristic of Moroccan immigrants but also because there are other political reasons related to the relations between the Spanish and Moroccan Governments that affect the situation of Moroccans in Spain because of their nationality. In order to show this unequal treatment of Moroccan immigrants in comparison with other immigrant groups, section two describes the main examples of clear discrimination: specific racist and xenophobic attacks against Moroccans in Spain; employment discrimination against Moroccans; and the institutional declarations that negatively affect Moroccans. The third section attempts to demonstrate how old and recent political crisis and controversies in the fields of fishing, agricultural, territorial disputes, and illegal immigration controls between both countries constitute factors which have made the integration of Moroccan labourers in Spain more difficult. The fourth section shows how the political crises and conflicts between Spain and Morocco have worsened the Spanish population's perception of Morocco and have influenced the treatment Moroccan immigrants receive in Spain. Finally, the last section contains several conclusions as a warning to the Spanish Government to improve its relations with Moroccan Authorities not only to obtain institutional and political results but also to bring about positive consequences for Moroccans living in Spain.

Abstract:
The article considers the problems of Spanish immigration within the period of 1981–2015, namely, its dynamics, latest tendencies and socio-economic characteristics (including changes in nationality, gender, age and educational structures of immigrants). Primarily, the stress is made on an in-depth analysis of the following main features of immigrants’ population in Spain: the levels of their incomes, the unemployment rate, the living standards. The author makes a conclusion that Spanish immigrants constitute not only a majority of poor population in the country but they are also ones of the poorest in Europe. It is particularly evident against the background of their impact upon the economic activity and employment’s rate of the country’s population and economic growth. At the considered period all the mentioned indicators were noticeably higher for immigrants than for local labor force, not saying of the positive immigrants’ influence on the growth and rejuvenation of Spanish people. Secondly, a considerable part in the article is devoted to the analysis of the immigration policy of Spanish government during the considered period of time. The author singles out the specific stages of this policy and shows that its contents and approaches modified in strict dependence of political factors. The Spanish Socialist Working Party was the beginner of the immigration policy in 1985 which always had the most liberal character particularly when it was concerned to the immigrant social and labor integration based on human rights equality. On the contrary, immigration policy of the now ruling conservative Partido Popular has more pragmatic, selective and rigid approach to foreign labor force legislation.

Abstract:
Abstract Although the immigrant population in Spain has decreased due to the economic crisis of the past five years, few studies have analysed this group. The objective of this research has been to profile the immigrant who decides to start a business in Spain. In order to learn about the probability of immigrant workers being entrepreneurs as a function of their socio-demographic characteristics, data from the Spanish National Institute of Statistics from 2005 to 2016 have been analysed and fieldwork carried out during August and September 2016 on immigrants who are self-employed. The results show a lower rate of entrepreneurship in the immigrant population vis-a-vis the native population and the fact that creating their own business begins at an earlier age for immigrants when compared to the national average.

AbstractObjectiveVarious studies in the USA and Canada have consistently shown a positive association between length of residence of immigrants and obesity. Studies in European countries have obtained less consistent results. The present work assesses the influence of length of residence on the frequency of obesity in immigrants in the city of Madrid, Spain.DesignWe studied a sample of 7155 persons aged 18 years and over residing in the city of Madrid, who were was surveyed between November 2004 and May 2005. Information was collected on immigrant status (country of birth), length of residence in Spain, obesity, sociodemographic characteristics and lifestyle.ResultsCompared with the Spanish population, the odds for obesity in the immigrant population by length of residence was less than one in all groups, becoming closer to one with increasing time of residence (OR = 0·67, 0·73 and 0·81 for immigrants with less than 2, 2–4 and 5–9 years of residence in Spain, respectively), up to 10 or more years of residence, when it declined (OR = 0·69). The magnitude of this association was considerably reduced after adjusting for sociodemographic variables and for perceived health, but was not further modified after adjusting for lifestyle variables.ConclusionsLength of residence of immigrants in the city of Madrid is not associated with the frequency of obesity. It is possible that the circumstances immigrants encounter after arriving in Spain do not involve an overexposure to factors favouring obesity, relative to those they bring with them.

Abstract:
Cardiovascular disease (CDV) risk factors are highly prevalent among adults with low social class in Spain. However, little is known on how these factors are distributed in the immigrant population, a socio-economic disadvantaged population. Thus, this study aims to examine inequalities in CVD risk factors among immigrant and native populations. We conducted a cross-sectional study using data from the Spanish National Health Survey 2017 and used log-binomial regression to quantify the association of immigrant status on CVD risk factors among adults aged 25–64 years. The probabilities of having at least three CVD risk factors were higher for immigrants from Eastern Europe (PR: 1.25; 95% CI: 1.15–1.35) and lower for immigrants from Africa (PR: 0.79; 95% CI: 0.69–0.89) when compared with natives. The association of immigrant status and CVD risk factors varies with educational attainment (p-interaction = 0.001). Immigrants from Eastern Europe with low educational attainment have a higher probability of having at least three CVD risk factors compared with their native counterparts. In contrast, immigrants from Africa and Latin America with low educational attainment had a protective effect against having at least three CVD risk relative to natives. Health prevention and promotion strategies to reduce the burden of CVD taking should account for educational attainment given its differential effect among the immigrant population in Spain.

Abstract:
This article analyses the narrative disruption processes and quality of life of adolescent immigrants in Spain. Furthermore, it also provides a new methodological approach to assess meta-subjective and narrative quality of life. Participants were 30 adolescents (15 immigrant and 15 autochthons) selected form a sample of 884 adolescents (from which 204 were immigrants). Data regarding quality of life was collected applying the Friendship Quality Scale and the Vancouver Index of Acculturation to all the participants (n = 884). According to the punctuation of the questionnaires a subsample was chosen, the Biographical Grid was applied to 30 participants; the immigrants group was also asked to write a text. Results indicate that both perceived quality of life and self-esteem of immigrant’s group are lower than the autochthons’ while narrative disruption is higher. A deeply explanation about some of the causes of these results is provided by the narratives’ analysis.

Abstract:
This article provides insight into the determinants of occupational mobility recorded for immigrants between their last job in the region of origin and their first job in Spain. Multinomial and bivariate logistic regression models are applied to identify the strongest predictors of upward and downward mobility when immigrants move from one country's labour market to another. This study's empirical analysis was carried out using data from the Spanish National Immigrant Survey of 2007. Our results show that ethnic segmentation in the Spanish labour market negatively affects the occupational mobility of immigrants. Secondly, we observe that non EU15 immigrants are at higher risk of downward mobility. Thirdly, higher levels of education offer protection against downward mobility and increase the chance for upgrading. Finally, contrary to our predictions, social capital embedded in support received from friends and relatives who reside in the destination country increases the risk of occupational downgrading and reduces the possibility of upward mobility.

Abstract:
Declining fertility in developed countries along with rising number of immigrants and different fertility behavior exhibited by the immigrants make the immigrants’ fertility an interesting topic in field of demography. However most of the studies on immigrants’ fertility consider the female immigrants as their subject on the assumption that they represent the immigrants’ fertility. This study took another perspective and tries to study male immigrants’ fertility. Spanish Immigrants’ Survey 2007 was used to see how the different migration related factors affect the male immigrants’ fertility. Poisson regression was applied on a sample of 3797 childless males who are 16 or older. This study found tentative support to selection hypothesis but no clear support to adaptation hypothesis on male fertility behaviors. There exist differences in the fertility between male immigrants from different regions. Effect of education, number of parent’s siblings and mother language on male immigrants’ fertility was also analyzed.

Abstract:
This study combines participant observation with intensive, semi-formal interviews to explore anti-Americanism in Madrid, Spain. It focuses on the experiences of the researcher and American respondents living in Spain. First, a broad typology of the anti-Americanism found in the study is constructed. This typology, reflecting the most commonly occurring types found in the study, consists of academic, structural, and nationalistic anti-Americanism. Next, the substantive areas of Bush's war in Iraq, political ideology, and Mead's concept of the Other are discussed in relation to current anti-Americanism in Madrid. Lastly, conclusions and suggestions for further research are discussed.

Abstract:
Since 1985, the phenomenon of immigration in Spain has emerged as a social concern, a keystone in national politics, and a topic in need of further research. This thesis aims to build on the existing work by exploring how two processes, the growth and increasing diversity of the immigrant population in Spain and the Europeanization of the country's immigration law, have impacted the legal integration of the Latin American immigrant community since the mid 1980s. Focusing on the case of Argentinean immigrants, I use a variety of methods to discuss the profile and evolution of this community in the context of the broader general and Latin American immigrations in Spain. This includes an analysis of the changes in immigration and citizenship legislation since 1985, paying special attention to those that have impacted Argentinean immigrants; an exploration of the representation of Argentineans in popular discourse; and a discussion of the ways in which these immigrants see themselves as insiders / outsiders within the Spanish nation-state. I conclude that there are two conflicting interpretations of Argentinean immigration in Spain. The first and most prevalent is the representation of the Argentinean immigrant as a returnee. This representation emerges strongly in popular discourse, immigrants' claims of belonging to the nation-state, and citizenship legislation; it is a legacy of both Spanish colonialism and emigration of Spaniards to Argentina in the past. The second is the representation of the Argentinean as an economic immigrant, which emerged in the 2000 immigration law. Argentineans are trapped in the contradictions and tensions between these two representations, but far from being passive recipients of the definitions and categories that the state imposes on them, there is evidence that they organize, accept, resist, or manipulate public discourses in their search to find a place for themselves in Spanish society. This thesis supports the status of public policy on immigration and citizenship as a boundary-marker for the national community, and calls for a greater attention to non-governmental actors in the institutionalization of immigration as an object of such public policy.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the Spain’s immigrants’ integration policy with the aim to reveal Spain’s national approach model using path dependence as a theory to search for the consistent and stable constraining or motivating ideas that dictate the direction of Spain’s immigrants’ integration policy. This paper finds out that the public philosophy of Spain is premised on historical ties, the interest is motivated by shared culture and the problem definition is framed based on the country of origin of the immigrants. However, these ideas make Spain’s immigrants’ policy to be restrictive or liberal to some group of immigrants depending on their country of origin. Immigrants from Third country nationals consisting of Latin- America, Andorra, the Philippines, Guinea Equatorial, Portugal and the Sephardic Jews who have had historical experience acquire Spanish Nationality faster than the other immigrants from third country nationals composed mainly of Morocco, Africa and Asia because of the way laws regulating immigrants acquisition of Spanish nationality is designed.

Abstract:
Background: The increased amount and diversification of migration flows to Europe are shaping new contexts forthe study of determinants of remittance-sending. Senegalese migration in Spain is one important case,because has increased its presence among other groups in the country and has different characteristics(e.g. younger age structure) compared to Senegalese migrants in Europe. This paper addresses aresearch challenge which can be framed in the three following aspects. First, it analyzes the migrant’sremittance behavior of a particular group of migrants in a specific national context. Second, itacknowledges remittances as transnational practices determined by factors related to incorporationinto host society and ties at origin. Thirdly, the paper provides a longitudinal approach which looks atmigration histories and changes in remittance-sending over time. Objective: The main objective of this paper consists on disentangling the way in which migrant’s remittancebehavior is affected by changes, over time, in individual characteristics (e.g. gender, education),economic integration, (e.g. employment status), and their ties at origin (e.g. family reunification).Thus, there are two research questions to be answered, namely: how are the trajectories of migrantremittances deployed since their arrival into Europe? And, how are these trajectories affected byindividual and family characteristics, as well as economic integration over time? Methodology: The paper is based on retrospective data from the Migration between Africa and Europe (MAFE) andthe Migrations Between Senegal and Spain (MESE) projects. The analysis of determinants ofremittance-sending is divided in two parts. First, a multivariate logistic regression which analyzes theodds of sending remittances (or logit) at any year since arrival into Europe is carried out. Secondly,event history analysis is used to explore the risk of initiating remittance-sending for the first time andthe risk of remittance-sending termination, respectively. In particular, a discrete-time logistic model isperformed to analyze these two processes. Results: Results indicate that despite having arrived relatively recently to Europe, lower educationalattainments and less access to the labour market, compared to other important destinations (e.g.France, Italy), the great majority of Senegalese migrants in Spain start sending remittances duringtheir first years of arrival. Once initiated, international money transfers are kept over time, as morethan two thirds of remitters maintain this economic flow over their stay. In this sense, empiricalevidence of this paper confirms remittances as an important aspect in South-North migration flows,both in terms of the proportion of migrants sending remittances and as a sustained transnationaleconomic practice.

Full text
Abstract:
During the last two decades, one of the most important changes in the geography of Algerian migration has been its gradual spread to some "new" contexts, that can be located differently in a spectrum of various characteristics, such as geographical location, historical-cultural links, existence of networks, and profiles of Algerian migrants, among others. In this qualitative research, two purposefully-selected samples of Algerian male and female migrants in London and Valencia were interviewed, as well as some key informants from several organisations, in addition to participant observation in different migrant settings. This led to the comparison of two context-related cases of migration in order to respond mainly four questions, viz, the reasons for Algerian migration to the VK and Spain as relatively different and new host countries, patterns of insertion as well as mobility within the local labour markets, the differences between the UK and Spain in terms of providing opportunities for social mobility versus entrapment, and the role of changing networks in influencing Algerian migration to the UK and Spain. While this research corroborates the inadequacy of a "grand theory" of migration, it confirms the suitability of a "multi•level theory" (Castles and Miller, 2003) that combines human agency and structural factors. The in-depth interviews in use favoured a downright consideration of the system "émigré-immigre" (Sayad, 1997), as well as the active role of migrants in shaping their lives before, during and after migration. There was a wide diversity of motives for migration and various patterns of insertion and mobility within the labour market, as well as outcomes for migrant workers. The networks of relatives, friends and institutions, as well as smugglers, were crucial in either the initiation of migration or the accommodation of migrants into the receiving areas. A gender-related approach was adopted as to bring to light the differences and similarities in migration between Algerian females and males, and to enhance the growing role of the former in Algerian migration.

Abstract:
The research on the integration of immigrants has become important during the last decades and the ways of measuring the integration of immigrants became more specific and specialized. In this study, the integration of Moroccan immigrants in the Valencian Autonomous Community of Spain was selected, considering that it is one of the most numerous foreign conglomerates and the one that contribute most to the economy of the Valencian Community.   The study aims to investigate whether Moroccan immigrants are integrated into the Valencian Community and what is the role of government integration plans to achieve this integration. This study was divided into two stages, first, an analysis of the plans to know the rights and guarantees of Moroccan immigrants in the Valencian Community and second, a field study where Moroccan immigrants were interviewed to know their level of interaction with the host society.   The study takes the Spencer and Charsley Domain Model, to analyze the integration processes of Moroccan immigrants through different domains, such as social, structural, cultural, civic, or in relation to identity. During fieldwork, interviews were conducted using specific measurement indicators, such as the level of participation in the labor market, access to training and education, the level of social interaction with the community, the change of values or in their lifestyle and the sense of belonging to the host country, among others. Also, the gender and age of the immigrants were considered.   The study concludes that the integration plans have an important role in the integration process by providing an equal opportunity base for immigrants. However, Moroccan immigrants, have weak ties at a cultural and social level with Spain, despite expressing their willingness to stay in Spain.
La investigación sobre la integración de los inmigrantes ha cobrado importancia durante las últimas décadas. A su vez las formas de medir la integración de los inmigrantes se han vuelto más específicas y especializadas. En este estudio se seleccionó la integración de inmigrantes marroquíes en la Comunidad Valenciana de España, considerando que es uno de los conglomerados extranjeros más numerosos y el que mas aporta a la economía de dicha comunidad.Este estudio tiene como objetivo investigar si los inmigrantes marroquíes están integrados en la Comunidad Valenciana y cuál es el rol de los planes de integración gubernamentales en esa integración. La investigación se dividió en dos etapas, en primer lugar, un análisis de los planes para conocer los derechos y garantías de los inmigrantes marroquíes en la Comunidad Valenciana, y en segundo lugar, un estudio de campo donde se entrevistó a los inmigrantes marroquíes para conocer su nivel de interacción con la sociedad de acogida.El estudio toma el Modelo de Dominio de Spencer y Charsley, para analizar los procesos de integración de los inmigrantes marroquíes a través de diferentes dominios como el social, estructural, cultural, el cívico y en lo concerniente a su identidad. Durante el trabajo de campo se realizaron entrevistas utilizando indicadores de medición específicos, tales como el nivel de participación en el mercado laboral, el acceso a la formación y educación, el nivel de interacción social con la comunidad, el cambio en sus valores o en su estilo de vida y el sentido de pertenencia con el país anfitrión. Además, se consideró el género y la edad de los inmigrantes entre otros factores.El estudio concluye que los planes de integración tienen un papel importante en el proceso de integración al brindar una base de igualdad de oportunidades para los inmigrantes. Sin embargo, los inmigrantes marroquíes, tienen lazos débiles a nivel cultural y social con España a pesar de manifestar su voluntad de permanecer en el país.

Objectius: Analitzar l’exposició a riscos psicosocials dels treballadors assalariats immigrants a Espanya comparant-la amb la dels espanyols i estudiar el paper dels riscos psicosocials en la relació entre la immigració i la salut mental. Mètodes: Estudi transversal realitzat per l’Institut Sindical de Treball, Ambient i Salut (ISTAS) entre el 2004 i el 2005 sobre una mostra representativa de població assalariada resident a Espanya. La informació s’obtingué a través d’un qüestionari estandarditzat administrat per entrevistador a domicili. La grandària de la mostra d’estudi fou de 7.555 treballadors, dels quals 6.868 eren espanyols i 687 eren immigrants. Per les exigències i la inseguretat, l’exposició es va definir segons el tercil més alt, mentre que per les altres dimensions, va ser definida segons el tercil més baix. La salut mental es dicotomitzà en bona i dolenta segons la mediana, que fou 76. Principals resultats: Els treballadors que estaven més exposats als riscos psicosocials van ser els immigrants manuals, especialment, en les baixes possibilitats de desenvolupament (PR: 2,87; IC95%: 2,44-3,73), i les dones immigrants, particularment en el baix control sobre els temps a disposició (PR: 1,72; IC95%: 1,55-1,91). Els treballadors immigrants amb elevades exigències quantitatives (PR: 1,46; IC95%: 1,34-1,59), elevades exigències emocionals (PR: 1,42; IC95%: 1,30-1,56), elevades exigències d’amagar emocions (PR:1,35; IC95%: 1,21-1,50), baixes possibilitats de desenvolupament (PR: 1,21; IC95%: 1,09-1,33), baixos nivells de suport social entre companys (PR: 1,41; IC95%: 1,30-1,53) i baixa estima (PR: 1,53; IC95%: 1,42-1,66) eren els treballadors que percebien pitjor salut mental. Conclusions: Els treballadors immigrants, especialment, els manuals i les dones, eren els més exposats a riscos psicosocials. Els treballadors més exposats als riscos psicosocials eren els que percebien pitjor salut mental. Per a millorar la salut mental dels treballadors, és necessari implementar mesures preventives per tal d’eradicar els riscos psicosocials, especialment dels grups més vulnerables.
Objetivos: Analizar la exposición a riesgos psicosociales de los trabajadores asalariados inmigrantes en España comparandola con la de los españoles y estudiar el papel de los riesgos psicosociales en la relación entre la inmigración y la salud mental. Métodos: Estudio transversal realizado por el Instituto Sindical de Trabajo, Ambiente y Salud (ISTAS) entre el 2004 y el 2005 sobre una muestra representativa de población asalariada residente en España. La información se obtuvo a través de un cuestionario estandardizado administrado por entrevistador en domicilio. El tamaño de la muestra de estudio fue de 7.555 trabajadores, de los cuales 6.868 eran españoles y 687 eran inmigrantes. Por las exigéncias y la inseguridad, la exposición se definió según el tercil màs alto, mientras que por las otras dimensiones, fue definida según el tercil más bajo. La salud mental se dicotomizó en buena y mala según la mediana, que fue 76. Principales resultados: Los trabajadores que estaban más expuestos a los riesgos psicosociales fueron los inmigrantes manuales, especialmente, en las bajas posibilidades de desarrollo (PR: 2,87; IC95%: 2,44-3,73), y las mujeres inmigrantes, particularmente en el bajo control sobre los tiempos a disposición (PR: 1,72; IC95%: 1,55-1,91). Los trabajadores inmigrantes con altas exigéncias cuantitativas (PR: 1,46; IC95%: 1,34-1,59), altas exigéncias emocionales (PR: 1,42; IC95%: 1,30-1,56), altas exigéncias de esconder emociones (PR: 1,35; IC95%: 1,21-1,50), bajas posibilidades de desarrollo (PR: 1,21; IC95%: 1,09-1,33), bajos niveles de apoyo social entre compañeros (PR: 1,41; IC95%: 1,30-1,53) y baja estima (PR: 1,53; IC95%: 1,42-1,66) fueron los trabajadores que percibieron peor salud mental. Conclusiones: Los trabajadores inmigrantes, especialmente, los manuales y las mujeres, eran los más expuestos a riesgos psicosociaels. Los trabajadores más expuestos a riesgos psicosociales eran los que percibieron peor salud mental. Para mejorar la salud mental de los trabajadores, es necesario implementar medidas preventivas para erradicar los riesgos psicosociales, especialmente de los grupos más vulnerables.

Abstract:
Abstract From traditional country of emigration, Spain became a country of immigration in a relatively short period, practically catching up with the rest of Western European countries in terms of percentage of population of foreign origin by 2010. The hybrid nature of its welfare regime, a combination of social insurance schemes and universalistic programs, determined the eligibility of foreign populations to each specific social protection scheme. In basic terms, foreigners can access Spanish social protection schemes through their participation in the labour market (for social insurance programs), and their residence in Spanish territory (for schemes based on a universalistic logic). The international agreements signed by Spain are a key aspect as well in determining welfare entitlements for foreigners, particularly in the case of nationals from other EU member states and Latin America. The strong reliance on contributory schemes, and the significant role played by the underground economy, leave economic migrants (particularly undocumented ones) without much social protection. The economic crisis initiated in 2008 implied an increase in immigrants’ vulnerability, but their actual welfare take-up decreased due to their more limited access to the formal labour market, and the restrictive conditions of targeted social assistance schemes.

Abstract:
The labour migration in Europe is a phenomenon with multiple effects, both positive and negative. Money sent by emigrants to their families is increasing their quality of life and has positive effects on the family relations; therefore it can be identified an increasing interest in the literature in studying such aspects. The purpose of the paper is to conduct a comparative analysis of the migrants’ propensity to sending money to the origin country. The study is based on data coming from the National Immigrant Survey of Spain (in Spanish: Encuesta Nacional de Inmigrantes – 2007). A total of 15,475 interviews were carried out. Moroccans, Romanians, and Ecuadorians represent 30% of the total number of immigrants resident in Spain. We employ a binary logistic regression model in order to identify the impact of socio-demographical factors on the probability of sending money abroad from Spain. Our aim is to identify cultural discrepancies in remittances sending, according to origin of migrants. We are mainly focusing on two large groups of respondents, which are North African and South Eastern Europe migrants. The variables employed are age of respondent, education, Intention to return in the country of origin, The period spent in Spain, gender of respondent, and the relation with the country of origin defined by the frequency of visits in the country. We identified similar patterns and also significant differences among the two groups.

Abstract:
This paper analyses the content of Twitter’s comments during the period covering the last European elections. "#immigrants" is the extraction’s keyword in different national languages. With the exception of English and French, whose extraction would be misleading, all of the other languages have been chosen to catch the geographical area of reference. We made sure to extract at least two sentences for each Welfare area. Once the data have been extracted, three different strategies have been used. The first one, dealing with both a qualitative and a quantitative assessment; the second one, analysing automatically the content of the top 10 extracted tweets during the reference period and the third one based on network analysis. Through a deep analysis of the content, three clusters have been identified: the first one dealing with the cultural risks of multiculturalism; the second one (social risks) dealing with the fear of migrants stealing job vacancies and the third one dealing with economic risks. A deep network analysis of Italian and Spanish contexts follows. What emerges is that: communication is extremely heterogeneous; in Italy there unique and duplicated edges prevails; in Spain there are more groups than in Italy, more themes covered and different kind of users and nets.

Abstract:
En la última década tanto las ciudades catalanas como las del resto del Estado Español, han sufrido importantes modificaciones en su morfología física y social debido a la llegada de numerosa población inmigrante. Esta población se localiza en unas zonas determinadas de nuestras ciudades y tiene unos patrones de asentamiento residencial diferentes a los de la población nativa. Asimismo, las características de sus viviendas y el uso que hacen del espacio público son diferentes a los del resto de la población. En esta ponencia se profundizará en el uso que hace la población inmigrante del espacio público en la Región Metropolitana de Barcelona, qué espacios públicos y qué equipamientos utilizan y si estos se ajustan a sus necesidades cotidianas; qué variables tienen mayor incidencia en este uso (edad, género, procedencia); como interactúa esta población con el resto de población del barrio; qué tipo de usos hacen del espacio público; cómo se relacionan la configuración física y social del espacio….Asimismo, se intentará detallar más escuetamente cuáles son las características habitacionales de esta población: cómo son sus casas y cómo acceden a ella. El ámbito territorial de la investigación es la Región Metropolitana de Barcelona. La investigación se desarrolla en distintos barrios de la RMB con diferentes características urbanísticas y demográficas, pero que tienen en común que cuentan con una concentración de población inmigrante superior a la media de la RMB. La metodología empleada es una combinación de técnicas cuantitativas y cualitativas. In the last decade both the Catalan cities as the rest of Spain, has undergone major changes in their physical and social morphology due to the arrival of large immigrant populations. This population is located in specific areas of our cities and has a residential settlement patterns different from the native population. Furthermore, the characteristics of their homes and their use of public space are different from the rest of the population. This paper will delve into the use by the immigrant population of public space in the metropolitan area of Barcelona, what public spaces and what equipment they use and if they fit their daily needs, what variables have the greatest impact in this application (age, gender, origin), as this population interacts with the rest of the neighborhood population, and what kinds of uses made of public space, and how are the physical and social space .... It will try to detail more succinctly what characteristics housing for this population: how are their homes and how to access it. The territorial scope of the research is the metropolitan area of Barcelona. The research is conducted in different districts of the RMB with different urban and demographic characteristics, but they have in common that have a concentration of immigrant population than the average of the RMB. The methodology is a combination of quantitative and qualitative.
