BERMUDEZ, Anastasia; ESCRIVA, Ángeles y MORAES MENA, Natalia. Political Participation of Latin American Migrants in Andalusia: Opportunities and Constraints. Migr. Inter [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.3, pp.73-98. ISSN 2594-0279.
The main purpose of this article is to present the results of a research project on the political participation of Latin American migrants in Andalusia (mainly in the cities of Seville and Huelva). The project uses a broad concept of what political participation constitutes, including both civic practices and activities associated with conventional politics, and adopts a transnational perspective. It is based on 45 semi-structured interviews with politically active migrants and members of political parties and other institutions. The article highlights some of the main findings of the research, including the importance of taking into account migrants' previous political experiences, as well as the role played by migrant associations in order to better understand their political practices.
