Senegambian Migrants' Strategies for Survival, Documentation and Mobility Publisher Amsterdam university Press (AUP) Place Amsterdam Year 2009 Pages 240 ISBN 9789089640505 Institute/dept. Associated members Keywords Comparative theory/case studies; Economic integration/labour market/informal economy; Health/welfare; Integration/settlement; Policies local/national/international Abstract This book examines two major social changes experienced by European cities in the last two decades: post-industrial economic restructuring and new immigration flows. The link between both has been extensively discussed throughout a variety of theoretical approaches and in numerous descriptive contributions. Adding to those studies, this research focuses on three elements of migratory experience that have been relatively neglected thus far: a dynamic view of changes over time, the influence of national welfare and legislation frameworks, and the importance of support mechanisms outside the labour market. The material underpinning the arguments is the qualitative life-course analysis of 81 in-depth interviews with Senegambian migrants living in Antwerp and Barcelona Classification ok Document type Dissertation Download paper  document/200000 Use this url to link to this page: http://library.imiscoe.org/en/record/362912 Order this publication in print on-line     Notify a colleague Add to bookbag
