Book Description
La experiencia migratoria suscita un sinnúmero de situaciones complejas que presentan un reto súbito e inesperado al liderazgo pastoral. En su tarea pastoral el líder se enfrenta diariamente con gran número de personas que reflejan y le recuerdan su propia condición, así como sus conflictos y dificultades, como inmigrante en muchos casos. Tal experiencia pude resultar agotadora y emocional y espiritualmente debilitante, debido a la identificación o sobreidentificación con las personas a quienes sirve. Este libro explora estas ideas y sus dinámicas. The immigration experience stirs up an endless number of complex situations that present a sudden and unexpected challenge to pastoral leadership. In their Hispanic ministerial task, every day, church leaders are faced people who share their struggles and conflicts – particularly immigrants. Effectively carrying out this ministry can be exhausting and emotional and spiritually debilitating, due to the unique difficulties this ministry faces. This book explores ideas and the dynamics of this ministry.

Book Description
Emigrant Dreams, Immigrant Borders: Migrants, Transnational Encounters, and Identity in Spain offers a new approach to the cultural history of contemporary Spain, examining the ways in which Spain’s own self-conceptions are changing and multiplying in response to migrants from Latin America and Africa. In the last twenty-five years, Spain has gone from being a country of net emigration to one in which immigrants make up nearly 12 percent of the population. This rapid growth has made migrants increasingly visible in both mass media and in Spanish visual and literary culture. This book examines the origins of media discourses on immigration and takes the analysis of contemporary Spanish culture as its primary framework, while also drawing insights from sociology and history. Emigrant Dreams, Immigrant Borders introduces readers to a wide range of recent films, journals, novels, photography, paintings, and music to reconsider contemporary Spain through its varied encounters with migrants. It follows the stages of the migrant’s own journey, beginning outside Spanish territory, continuing across the border (either at the barbed-wire fences of Ceuta and Melilla or the waters of the Atlantic or the Strait of Gibraltar), and then considers what happens to migrants after they arrive and settle in Spain. Each chapter analyzes one of these stages in order to illustrate the complexity of contemporary Spanish identity. This examination of Spanish culture shows how Spain is evolving into a new space of imagination, one that can no longer be defined without the migrant—a space in which there is no unified identity but rather a new self-understanding is being born. Vega-Durán both places Spain in a larger European context and draws attention to some of the features that, from a comparative perspective, make the Spanish case interesting and often unique. She argues that Spain cannot be understood today outside the Transatlantic and Mediterranean spaces (both real and imaginary) where Spaniards and migrants meet. Emigrant Dreams, Immigrant Borders offers a timely study of present-day Spain, and makes an original contribution to the vibrant debates about multiculturalism and nation-formation that are taking

Book Description
La República Dominicana se destaca por ser una economía en rápido crecimiento que no le ha sido posible generar una reducción proporcional en la pobreza. Tres razones han sido planteadas anteriormente para explicar esta paradoja: (i) un mercado laboral que no traduce el aumento de la productividad en aumentos salariales; (ii) una economía interna con débiles encadenamientos intersectoriales; (iii) y un sector público que ni gasta lo suficiente, ni particularmente bien, para reducir la pobreza. Además, el país permanece mayormente expuesto a desastres naturales y choques exógenos que, si no se mitigan adecuadamente, pueden afectar la sostenibilidad del crecimiento a largo y mediano plazos. Esta obra conjuga varios análisis empíricos que exploran tres hipótesis complementarias que podrían ayudar a entender porqué la República Dominicana, aún hoy, sigue experimentando altas tasas de crecimiento económico con reducción limitada de la pobreza. La primera hipótesis trata de probar si el patrón de rápido crecimiento económico con la pobreza persistente que se observa en la RD lo impulsa en parte una metodología de la pobreza que no toma en cuenta la variación de precios que claramente afecta los patrones de consumo de los hogares de ingresos bajo y aquéllos de mejor posición económica. Si se sostiene esa hipótesis, la RD puede enfrentar una situación en la cual se subestiman los ingresos del hogar con respecto a los hogares en el extremo inferior de la distribución. La segunda hipótesis intenta validar si el patrón de especialización en la RD podría ser tal que no favorece la mano de obra no calificada. Si se sostiene esa hipótesis, entonces el rendimiento del capital probablemente es mucho mayor que el rendimiento de la mano de obra lo que podría ser un indicio de que la RD ha tenido una ventaja comparativa en productos que son de uso intensivo de capital. La tercera hipótesis investiga si la pobreza y la desigualdad salarial en la RD se ven afectadas no solo por la inmigración, sino también por la emigración. El aporte del volumen, por tanto, descansa precisamente en ofrecer una exploración más cuidadosa de los asuntos específicos que giran en torno a explicaciones comunes para las deficiencias de la RD en reducir la pobreza de manera más rápida.

Book Description
Return to Sender is an anthropological account of how Peruvian emigrants raise and remit money and what that activity means for themselves and for their home communities. The book draws on first-hand ethnographic data from North and South America, Europe, and Japan to describe how Peruvians remit to relatives at home, collectively raise money to organize development projects in their regions of origin, and invest savings in business and other activities. Karsten Paerregaard challenges unqualified approval of remittances as beneficial resources of development for home communities and important income for home countries. He finds a more complex situation in which remittances can also create dependency and deprivation.

Book Description
Offering a rich ethnographic account, this book traces the historical processes by which Andalusians experienced the shift from being poor emigrants to northern Europe to becoming privileged citizens of the southern borderland of the European Union, a region where thousands of African immigrants have come in search of a better life. It draws on extended ethnographic fieldwork in Granada and Senegal, exploring the shifting, complementary and yet antagonistic relations between Spaniards and African immigrants in the Andalusian agrarian work place. The author's findings challenge the assumption of fixed national, cultural, and socioeconomic boundaries vis-à-vis outside migration in core countries, showing how legal and cultural identities of Andalusians are constructed together with that of immigrants.

Book Description
This book studies the normative intersection between integration, immigration and nationality in the European Union (EU). It examines the relationship between integration and the legal frameworks of admission, stay and access to nationality by third country nationals at national and European levels. Integration is being subject to multifaceted processes transforming its traditional policy and legal settings, as well as its classical theoretical premises and approaches. The Europeanisation of immigration policy has provoked the emergence of distinctive European approaches on integration. The legal elements of integration are being developed through two parallel settings: the EU Framework on Integration and European immigration law. These venues constitute two of the main pillars upon which the common EU immigration policy is being constructed, and their nexus raises several elements in need of reflection and study. This book examines the processes through which integration becomes a norm in nationality and immigration law and policy at the national and EU levels, and the implications of these processes for the legal status of third country nationals and the overall coherency of the common EU immigration policy.
