Shopping malls and neoliberal trends in Southern European cities: post-metropolitan challenges for urban planning policy

2016

Whilst shopping malls have been explored at length by critical urban studies, there has been little exploration of their role in restructuring the practice of urban and spatial planning. This article uses the shopping mall as an object of study in the light of the neoliberal trends and post-metropolisation in Southern Europe, with the aim of exploring challenges for urban governance and planning practice and with a focus on the role of the ongoing economic crisis. A threefold exploratory framework – the ‘lost-in-time scenario’, the ‘messianic mall model’ and the ‘(im)mature planning explanation’ – is used to make sense of the local versions of shopping mall development in Lisbon (Portugal) …

Migration in southern Europe: The peripheral incorporation in crisis

2016

En este trabajo se analizan los resultados principales de una investigación comparativa sobre la migración, la integración social de los migrantes y las políticas públicas hacia los inmigrantes en Campania (Italia) y Extremadura (España). Nuestra perspectiva se basa en el concepto de incorporación periférica de los inmigrantes en la sociedad local. Nuestro punto de partida, por lo tanto, fue la idea de que, en estas regiones poco desarrolladas del sur de Europa, la sociedad local incluye a los inmigrantes en la medida en que ayudan en hacer frente a la globalización económica y la reducción de las políticas sociales. La investigación, realizada en 2014 principalmente a través de una encuest…

Urban Change and Regional Development at the Margins of Europe: Evaluating the Effects of the EU Policy

2022

Since the beginning of the 1990s, regions and urban areas have become a primary target of EU Cohesion Policy. For a number of European cities, especially in the less developed regions, this has resulted in a unique opportunity for the implementation of extensive development projects, as well as delivering innovations in urban policy and local governance. Through the detailed observation of planning processes which took place in four European cities – Porto (PT), Malaga (ES), Palermo (IT), and Thessaloniki (EL) – this book explores the different ways that EU intervention can affect the policy process locally, from the regeneration of decayed neighborhoods and the creation of key services for…

Nuevas perspectivas de análisis para entender la migración cualificada del sur de Europa hacia México

2018

This article focuses on skilled migration flows from Southern Europe into Mexico. From semi-structured interviews with Spanish and Italian immigrants living in four Mexican cities of Mexico, it addresses both reasons for immigration and labour incorporation in Mexican labour markets. Specifically, it explores: i) the role of the economic crisis and the lack of good employment in the countries of origin as a key factor when deciding an international migration; ii) the employment opportunities offered in Mexican labour markets for the highly-skilled immigrants, and iii) the role played by the Mexican state and its current immigration law when channelling this group into the labour market
