CACOPARDO, María Cristina; MAGUID, Alicia  and  MARTINEZ, Rosana. New emigration of Latin American people to Spain: the case of Argentineans from a compared perspective. Pap. poblac [online]. 2007, vol.13, n.51, pp.9-44. ISSN 2448-7147.

From the mid XX century, Argentinean emigration has increased dramatically, but it is in the last decade when destinations different to the United States have come into scene, such is the case of Spain. The objective of this study is to compare the sociodemographic characteristics as well as the modalities of the migrants' employment patterns of Argentinean emigrants to those of Ecuadorians and Colombians. These three groups were selected due to their representativity in Spain and because they exemplify different dimensions of the migratory processes. It is of our interest to visualize the role these groups play in the Spanish labor market by the identification of main insertion sectors and their occupational qualification use according to their educational achievement, in terms of gender, time of residence and citizenship.

Keywords : international emigration; Latin American emigration; Latin American emigration to Spain; Argentinean emigration to Spain.
