Senegalese Immigrants, Islam and Confraternities in Valencia (Spain). Joan Lacomba. This article presents a portion of the results of a study on Muslim immigrants and their strategies of adaptation in a non-Muslim environment. Out of the groups of different nationalities studied, the Senegalese present the most original adaptive strategies. Aside from their particular interpretation of Islam, they have put into place organisational forms unlike those found in other groups of Muslims studied. They have brought to Spain the System of confraternities whose influence is very strong in their society of origin. In the new context, this organisation into confraternities has become a fundamental instrument in regulating the community and in the integration of Senegalese Muslim immigrants into the work environment.
