La diáspora de las mujeres saharauis en Galicia
Dans cet article, nous explorons la diaspora sahraouie en Galice et le rôle des femmes dans la communication et la transmission du conflit du Sahara Occidental. À partir d’une approche féministe et décoloniale, nous engageons une méthodologie qualitative, en menant des entretiens et une ethnographie digitale. Nous étudions la perception que les femmes sahraouies ont de leur condition diasporique, en analysant leur usage politique des réseaux soci…
Landscapes as Narratives
The inspiration for this work is based on the experimental film Tout le monde aime le bord de la mer [The colour of the sea] I set in the border town of Ceuta, a Spanish enclave in the north of Africa. The film depicts this territory of transit migrations as a racialised limbo. Drawing on field diaries written during the filming process, I examine here the leading role that landscape can play in the fabrication of narratives and the performative …
La circulación de cuidados y remesas en las familias migrantes caboverdianas en Galicia. Una investigación en materia de cooperación al desarrollo

The Role of the ‘Cities for Change’ in Protecting the Rights of Irregular Migrants in Spain
Have the new municipalist pro-migrant policies succeeded in protecting the rights of irregular migrants? Cities in Spain have powers to design and implement services and programs aimed at the reception and integration of immigrants. Cities can also include those who are in vulnerable conditions, guaranteeing them access to healthcare, minimum income coverage or labour training, regardless of the immigration status. However, old municipal politics…
Migration policy and international human rights frameworks in Morocco
In 2013, Morocco announced the adoption of a new, 'humane' migration policy. The implementation of the reform, however, has been characterised by an apparent contradiction: while Morocco has leveraged the humanitarian and international orientation of the policy as a foreign policy tool, this new political framework has not so far been translated into law and has been accompanied by persisting violations of migrants' rights, especially in border a…
Immobilized between Two EU Thresholds
When Spain joined the Schengen Agreement in 1991, the North African city of Ceuta1 started to gradually turn into a key hub of irregular sub-Saharan migration to the European Union2 (see Alscher 2005; Berriane and Aderghal 2009; Carling 2007; Driessen 1996; Fekete 2004; FerrerGallardo 2008, 2011; Gold 1999; Mutlu and Leite 2012; Planet 1998; Saddiki 2010; Soddu 2002, 2006). Since then, both the increasing securitization of its border and the fluc…

The borderscape of Punta Tarifa
This contribution aims to provide a cultural–geographical reading of the borderscape of Punta Tarifa: the southernmost point of so-called continental Europe and a key site vis-a-vis material and representational Euro-African (dis)connections. It is argued that Punta Tarifa harbours a complex process of symbolic and functional invisibilisation that turns this border landscape into a highly significant scenario within the ongoing European Union bor…
