Crisis, convivencia multicultural y "efectos de barrio". El caso de dos barrios de Valencia

2015

La inserción urbana de los inmigrantes se desestabiliza y se pone a prueba con la crisis y las políticas aplicadas. Si bien en Valencia se mantiene una convivencia tranquila, la situación de los servicios públicos aumenta la competencia por recursos escasos entre vecinos de diferentes orígenes. Este texto presenta, en el marco de la ciudad de Valencia, un análisis comparativo de dos barrios receptores de inmigrantes que presentan fuertes contrastes. Por un lado, Russafa un barrio céntrico popular y en proceso de gentrification; por otro, Els Orriols, un barrio periférico obrero. Aún con muchos rasgos comunes, la intensidad del recelo hacia el inmigrante varía de un barrio a otro en función …

Génesis y resolución de conflictos relacionados con la instalación de mezquitas y oratorios: el caso del oratorio de Singuerlín (Santa Coloma de Gram…

2017

Durante los últimos años, se han sucedido, en diferentes territorios del Estado español, los conflictos relacionados con la instalación de mezquitas y oratorios destinados a la práctica del culto musulmán.

Latvian Emigrants in the United States: Different Waves, Different Identities?

2019

AbstractThis chapter studies the relationships and interaction among the Latvian emigrants from different migration waves in the United States. It specifically examines reasons for the inability of the existing and politically and culturally active Latvian diaspora community in the United States to integrate newcomers from Latvia. The diaspora community is formed mostly of migrants who left Latvia after World War II. The research is based on a mix of two sources of information and methods – qualitative analysis of in-depth interviews with the ‘new’ Latvian emigrants in the United States in 2014, who began arriving there in 1991 and quantitative data analysis of The Emigrant Communities of L…

2018

We wstępnej części artykułu zostaną zaprezentowane kategorie OBCY, INNY oraz SWÓJ w różnych konfiguracjach (opozycja komplementarna, triada), obecnych w dyskursie tożsamościowym. Następnie przedstawione zostaną determinanty tożsamości: konfesja i język grupy mieszkańców Zelowa – potomków czeskich emigrantów religijnych. W końcowej części artykułu podkreśla się, że obraz potomków czeskich emigrantów jest zmienny w czasie: początkowo była to grupa homogeniczna pod względem wyznaniowym, etnicznym i językowym, a obecnie jest grupą zasymilowaną językowo i kulturowo.

Effects of environment and genotype on dispersal differ across departure, transfer and settlement in a butterfly metapopulation

2022

Active dispersal is driven by extrinsic and intrinsic factors at the three stages of departure, transfer and settlement. Most empirical studies capture only one stage of this complex process, and knowledge of how much can be generalized from one stage to another remains unknown. Here we use genetic assignment tests to reconstruct dispersal across 5 years and 232 habitat patches of a Glanville fritillary butterfly ( Melitaea cinxia ) metapopulation. We link individual dispersal events to weather, landscape structure, size and quality of habitat patches, and individual genotype to identify the factors that influence the three stages of dispersal and post-settlement survival. We found that ne…

Formed Emigration: A Qualitative Study About Spanish Graduated Experiences And Adaptation Abroad

2019

In the past few years, Spain has gone through an economic recession that has impeded the development of professional opportunities for young graduates. Consequently, there is an increasing migration of young graduates across borders to work abroad. The aim of this qualitative research carried out through a case study, is to examine the experiences of Spanish graduates in developing a professional career abroad, specifically in Germany. Ten interviews were analyzed through inductive content analysis. Our results indicate that the migration of young Spaniards to work abroad is the result of economic and/or professional need rather than choice. Furthermore, language proficiency was found to be…
