Immigrant Entrepreneurship and Rural Tourism in a Left-Behind Region, Sayago (Zamora, Spain)
Rural Sayago (Zamora, Spain), on the Portuguese border, exemplifies long-term depopulation and ageing processes in Southern Europe. This study examines the tourism-migration nexus, asking how tourism development influences the arrival, settlement and economic incorporation of internal and international immigrants. We combine qualitative fieldwork from two projects—semi-structured interviews with migrant entrepreneurs in accommodation, hospitality…

This paper analyses the labour incorporation of skilled Latin American immigrant workers into Spain. It is based on in‐depth interviews with 24 Latin American immigrants and it explores reasons for migration into Spain, showing that the interviewees migrated for a great variety of reasons, not necessarily for work. Subsequently, the paper analyses the interviewees’ labour incorporation in Spain and defines three paths into skilled work in Spain. …
Labour Immigration in Southern Europe
This title was first published in 2003. Research on migration into southern Europe has paid little consideration to the ways of incorporating immigrants into labour markets and the impact these foreign-born workers have on local labour markets. Neither has much attention been given to the character of labour markets that enables these workers to find a job. This book fills that gap by exploring case studies of African employment in Spain and Port…

Explaining Urban Migration from Mexico City to the USA
Using a representative survey on a municipality in Mexico City, the article explores the relevance of both social networks and place attachments for US migration. By comparing households with and without migrants, the logistic regression models show that social networks make emigration more selective with respect “education”, but less selective regarding “sex” and “marital status”. These results shed new light on the mechanism through which socia…

Transnational Spaces through Local Places
Even though a large part of empirical research has focused on particular localities, literature on transnational migration has neglected the role of place in the construction or permanence of transnational ties between Mexico and the United States. This article explores how relevant the place (i.e., constructions and representations of places, as well as developing a sense of place) is to understanding migration processes and decisions among Mexi…

The role of the state in influencing African labour outcomes in Spain and Portugal
African employment in Iberian construction
International labour immigration into Southern Europe has been highlighted as a main migration trend in Europe since the mid-1980s. Yet little research has been done on specific labour market processes that 'allow' immigrants to find work in the context of high European unemployment. More than 'absolute' labour shortages, it seems that immigrants fill the 'holes' in labour supply that home populations have left. This article explores this issue f…

Examining employment patterns at a provincial level, it explores why there is a concentration in certain regions of Spain. Focusing on the province of Girona, the study utilizes interview responses from African workers, employers and key local informants to explore reasons for African employment, as well as examining the working conditions of African …
