Abstract
RUIZ NUNEZ, Alfonso. Spanish Immigrants in London. An Analysis of Labor Trajectories from a Biographical Perspective. Estud. sociol [online]. 2024, vol.42, e2443. Epub May 24, 2024. ISSN 2448-6442. https://doi.org/10.24201/es.2024v42.e2443.
This paper sought to analyze the labor trajectories of Spanish immigrants in London, who arrived after the international economic crisis of 2008.Once they had been analyzed, an empirical typology of labor trajectories was constructed, based on a set of factors representing the core of the analysis. To this end, twenty-eight in-depth, biographical-narrative interviews were conducted, which subsequently underwent a biographical analysis supported by tools and concepts from the life course approach. The cases were analyzed in four groups, based on age of arrival, the moment in a person’s life course and length of exposure.
Keywords : international migration; labor trajectories; biographies; crisis; London; Spain.
