En las Fronteras de la Autoctonía. Migrantes internos e internacionales en Barcelona (España)
(Universidad Autónoma de Baja California, 2025) Mata Codesal, Diana; Aramburu, Mikel
[spa] Este artículo explora las posibilidades heurísticas de tratar conjuntamente las migraciones internas e internacionales, algo descuidado por los estudios migratorios que han tendido a analizarlas por separado. Centrado en el caso de Barcelona desde 1960 hasta 2020, el estudio conjuga el análisis de fuentes secundarias y los trabajos de campo etnográfico realizados por los autores en dos barrios de la ciudad. Se muestra cómo ambos tipos de movilidades han sido “migrantizadas”, es decir, sujetas a una condición social distintiva que remite a los procesos de subalterización a los que estos grupos han sido sometidos en las sociedades de residencia. Si bien la generalización de los resultados a otros casos requiere mayor investigación, se aportan evidencias sólidas del carácter contingente de la categoría inmigrante y las posibilidades analíticas de explorar los procesos de fronterización —construcción, deconstrucción y reconstrucción de fronteras (boundaries)— que se generan en torno a la movilidad de poblaciones.
The moral community of redistribution: interregional fiscal grievances in working-class urban Catalonia
(Routledge. Taylor & Francis Group, 2024) Aramburu, Mikel
Nationwide interregional redistribution has recently become a salient political issue in several wealthy regions in Europe, to the point of becoming a powerful motivation for pursuing political independence. Catalonia is a case in point. Rather than focus on the core of the nationalist movement, the present ethnographic study approaches its margins: it examines how working-class second-generation immigrants from southern Spain living in Barcelona voice their disapproval of what they see as an unfair territorial redistribution within Spain that allows for generous social protection in their parents’ places of origin in the poor South at the expense of the hard-pressed workers in the productive North. The second generation’s critique of interregional redistribution is a way of denouncing economic hardships in the absence of an effective alternative discourse for explaining inequalities within Catalonia. However, rather than expressing some sort of welfare chauvinism following a nationalist Catalan–Spanish divide, these particular fiscal grievances can be better understood against the background of migratory memories and subjectivities, and particularly of the imagination concerning the urban–rural cleavage. Ultimately, this ethnographic case invites us to recognize multiple and embedded rationales of social sharing, which I attempt to encompass within the concept of the ‘moral community of redistribution’.
Eran del barrio y atendían a razones. La terminología del in/civismo y la diferencia entre estar y ser del barrio
(Asociación de Antropólogos Iberoamericanos en Red, 2021) Mata Codesal, Diana
[spa] En 2006 entró en vigor en Barcelona la popularmente conocida como «Ordenanza de Civismo» con el explicitado fin de promover la convivencia a través de la regulación de los comportamientos en los espacios públicos de la ciudad. Este texto analiza la relación existente entre la entrada en vigor de la normativa (y la hiperregulación resultante) y la incomodidad y el malestar de ciertos grupos populares de la ciudad ante un abanico creciente de comportamientos en el espacio urbano. Tras una década, el mayor éxito de esta ordenanza ha sido la inclusión en el lenguaje cotidiano de la ciudad de la terminología del «civismo», donde la calificación peyorativa de incívico ha pasado a formar parte del léxico habitual, no solo de los grupos promotores de la ordenanza, sino incluso del de aquellos grupos cuyos comportamientos esta buscaba regular. Este texto analiza los orígenes y usos de la terminología del «civismo» en el contexto de la ciudad de Barcelona, incluyendo sus patrones de aparición y recurrencia en la prensa y su cambiante significado. En una segunda parte el texto muestra cómo grupos populares de barrios periféricos de la ciudad como El Carmel (conformados en su mayor parte por migrantes internos y sus descendientes) han apropiado la terminología, empleándola para marcar la diferencia entre ellos y los incívicos otros llegados con posterioridad que también habitan, pero no son del barrio.
La injusticia redistributiva y sus 'otros'. Discursos de exclusión redistributiva en un barrio popular de Barcelona
(Universitat de Barcelona) Aramburu, Mikel
[spa] En un momento de crecimiento de las desigualdades económicas, en muchos casos las demandas de justicia redistributiva de los sectores populares, más que a reclamar un mayor reparto de la riqueza (siguiendo una tradicional política de clase), se dirigen a cuestionar el acceso de otros colectivos a dicho reparto. Mediante un trabajo etnográfico realizado en un barrio obrero de Barcelona, se muestra que si bien los inmigrantes extranjeros son uno de los colectivos señalados por esta lógica excluyente (siguiendo una política nativista), también emergen otros colectivos, como por ejemplo los okupas o los desempleados rurales del sur peninsular, a quienes se cuestiona su acceso a lossistemas de redistribución. Se identifican una serie de rasgos compartidos por estas nociones restrictivas de la justicia redistributiva y se interpretan a la luz de diversas líneas teóricas proporcionadas por la literatura reciente.
La extraña pareja. Intersecciones entre clases y sexualidades subalternas
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC)) Aramburu, Mikel
En el análisis social contemporáneo, la intersección de clase y sexualidad ha sido poco explorada. De hecho, ambas han ten-dido a ocupar polos opuestos en diferentes problematizaciones teóricas. En particular, la idea del desplazamiento de las reclamaciones económicas por parte de las culturales (de las que las identidades homoeróticas serían uno de sus mayores exponentes), parece haberse revigorizado en los últimos años, planteándose a veces como una especie de juego de suma cero, donde unas van en detrimento de las otras. Esta oposición será problematizada en este artículo a partir del análisis del discurso autobiográfico de una serie de intelectuales LGTB procedentes de clases trabajadoras, tanto de Francia como de Catalunya. Estos ejercicios de autoanálisis combinan la denuncia de la homofobia vivida en sus familias y comunidades de origen con la crítica a la dominación de clase y a la vivencia del clasismo en trayec-torias de movilidad social. Los relatos autobiográficos analizados presentan una reflexión donde la subjetivación de clase (desestimulada por la hegemonía neoliberal en las últimas décadas) se nutre de una serie de categorías, metáforas y estrategias identitarias surgidas de las experiencias LGTB. Estas reflexiones autobiográficas plantean un tipo de interseccionalidad que no es el de la fragmentación y atomi-zación de las formas de opresión como experiencias inconmensurables, sino uno que suscita resonancias y paralelismos entre diferentes expresiones de la diferencia y la desigualdad, de la dominación y la liberación, y que permite que aquellas áreas de la subjetividad menos legitimadas se vean estimuladas por la reflexividad desarrollada en otros ámbitos de la vida.
Sexo y poder en la sociedad de clases. La política sexual interclasista en el imaginario literario de Juan Marsé
Aramburu, Mikel
Durante el tardofranquismo y la transición, Juan Marsé tematizó en varias novelas y relatos el acercamiento sexoafectivo entre jóvenes catalanas de acaudalada familia y hombres pobres inmigrantes. A diferencia de la interpretación reciente de estas obras, que ha favorecido una lectura en términos de la dialéctica nacional catalana, en este artículo se enfatiza el imaginario interclasista de estos (des)encuentros amorosos. Estas novelas pueden leerse como una expresión, al tiempo que una recreación, de lo que François Dubet (2019) denomina el “régimen de clases”, propio de la sociedad industrial, cuando la clase proporcionaba la principal cartografía social, del cual Marsé ofrece una particular versión caricaturesca y burlesca.
Convivencia: urban space and migration in a small Catalan town: by Martin Lundsteen, Lanham, Rowman & Littlefield, 2022, xilv + 199 pp., $120.00 (£92.00) (Hardback). ISBN: 978-1-78661-452-0
(Taylor & Francis) Aramburu, Mikel
Since the end of the Franco regime, state regulation has made home ownership one of the main strategies of social reproduction of the Spanish working class. In the 1960s and 70s, new subsidized private housing projects were built on the outskirts of cities to accommodate migrants coming from the Spanish rural exodus. It was in these neighbourhoods, with poor facilities and far-reaching class stigmas, where migrants from the global South began to settle around the year 2000. Much like their internal migrant predecessors, the new international immigrants were also funnelled into home ownership. Due to their (over)indebtedness, these newcomers bought from native working-class homeowners who were thus able to move to other neighbourhoods with better housing and facilities. In many working-class areas, the population change happened very fast. When the financial crisis of 2008 hit, these neighbourhoods were left with an aging and impoverished contingent of native neighbours, who could not leave and now felt trapped, and the newcomers from a racialized working class who, in the middle of a severe economic crisis, could not afford to pay their mortgages. The resulting environment was conducive to conflicts of convivencia (conviviality), such as those studied ethnographically by Martin Lundsteen.
Fresh or thawed T cells?: How modes of bioavailability matter in the study of translational medicine
(SAGE Publications) Argudo Portal, Violeta
This article explores how cell immunotherapy becomes deliverable at the in-betweens of the bench, bedside, and community in translational medicine. During ethnographic research in an advanced cell therapies unit, I observed how the staff made virus-specific T cells available for therapeutic use. In dialogue with recent Science and Technology Studies scholars’ thinking around the concept of readiness, this paper highlights the analytic richness of paying empirical attention to how biological therapeutics are made available (i.e., their modes of bioavailability). This study identifies two modes of bioavailability for landing cellular drugs at the bedside. In bioavailability mode I, cells are banked in potential donors’ bodies and extracted for fresh infusion. In bioavailability mode II, cells are expanded and cryobanked in a cell bank for thawed infusion. Each mode offers different degrees of readiness and matching. I argue that ethnographic analysis of modes of bioavailability in health innovation and therapeutics implementation enables a less finalist and mass production understanding of translational medicine. This work highlights the relevance of exploring the practices, logistics, and logics that make some modes of bioavailability more valuable than others in pharmaceutical terms—and biomedicine more broadly.
Police Resilience as a Multilevel Balance: Needs and Resources for Victim Support Officers
(SAGE Publications, 2022-06-30) Domínguez Ruiz, Ignacio Elpidio; Rué, Alèxia; Jubany, Olga
Providing face-to-face support to victims entails one the most intense stress- and trauma-laden exchanges of law enforcement tasks, which frequently triggers long lasting negative effects on police officer's psychological wellbeing. When exploring this phenomenon, police resilience is often interpreted as police officers' and organization's capacity to react and recover from negative experiences and impediments, and as such it may be perceived as both a trait and a trainable and promotable skill. Yet, in very recent times, police resilience has faced new or transformed challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as victims, citizens, and public institutions have encountered new needs and situations. Drawing from a unique qualitative, in-depth research with police officers that provide support to victims of gender-based and domestic violence, this paper analyzes officers' needs and challenges regarding their interactions with victims, colleagues, superiors, and other occupational demands, as they interplay into stress and trauma that may lead to burnout and compassion fatigue. Illustrated with the empirical findings of the case study of the Catalonia's Mossos d'Esquadra police corps, the paper explores how officers negotiate individuals' expectations, needs, and procedures signals towards potential challenges and threats to their psychological wellbeing with implications for police forces and other public and private institutions. The specific needs and demands of the participants' policing, related to support to gender-based and domestic violence, presents an in-depth analysis of how stress and trauma are understood and experienced from the police officers' perspectives.
Drawing a line: boundary work in victim support police work
(Taylor & Francis, 2023-05-16) Domínguez Ruiz, Ignacio Elpidio; Rué, Alèxia; Jubany, Olga
Victim support entails one of the most intense stress- and trauma-laden interactions faced by law enforcement professionals, and this function or role frequently triggers long lasting negative effects on officers’ psychological health and wellbeing. As police officers interact daily with victims, but also with other officers, social services, and institutions, the limits between tasks and needs may directly affect how they manage stress, trauma, and notions of individual and organisational responsibility. As such, boundary work may be a useful framework to understand and even improve how victim support police officers interact with other individuals and organisations. Drawing from a groundbreaking qualitative, in-depth research with police officers that provide support to victims of gender-based and domestic violence, this paper analyses conscious and unconscious boundaries as key elements in the officers’ wellbeing. Informed by the empirical findings of a case study of Catalonia’s Mossos d’Esquadra police corps, this paper explores how victim support officers negotiate their individual and organisational boundaries as they interact with other agents and institutions, and how these negotiations affect them. This paper argues for the relevance of an officer’s agency and discretion for distinguishing between conscious and unconscious boundaries, as their limits may be blurred throughout the wide range of interactions.
La dimensión espacial de la victimización anti-LGBTI en España
(Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas - Siglo XXI, 2023-07-01) Domínguez Ruiz, Ignacio Elpidio
[spa] Las diferentes experiencias de victimización y las condiciones de vida de las personas LGBTI —lesbianas, gais, bisexuales, trans e intersexuales—, lejos de ser homogéneas, varían en el plano geográfico. Las desiguales vivencias se relacionan y comparan en distintos países, pero también regiones o municipios, algo que no ha escapado de la atención académica y mediática. A partir de datos para España de una encuesta en la Unión Europea, este artículo explora la relación de dependencia entre las respuestas sobre victimización y condiciones de vida con el lugar de residencia de las personas participantes, sobre el continuo rural-urbano. El test chicuadrado de independencia y los residuos estandarizados permiten rechazar la homogeneidad de las vivencias de las personas LGBTI, así como distinguir las problemáticas concretas para cada categoría de participantes.
Returning to the gaybourhood: Expectations of resilience and recovery of Chueca (Madrid) after the COVID-19 pandemic
(Varna University of Management, 2023-06-16) Domínguez Ruiz, Ignacio Elpidio; Mancha Cáceres, Olga Inmaculada; Pichardo Galán, José Ignacio
Chueca, in Madrid, is Spain’s most well-known gaybourhood, a significant space for both local and national LGBTQ individuals and activist movements, as well as for the Spanish and European LGBTQ tourist circuits. The COVID 19 pandemic hit hard in a neighbourhood already heavily disputed among arguments of touristification and tourist accommodation, as tourist-oriented businesses began closing and other, more resident-oriented ones transformed themselves to survive the year 2020. Drawing from ethnographic research undertaken from 2019 to early 2021, this article analyses different experiences and expectations of recovery among local professionals, mostly business owners from Chueca itself. The opposition between a return to business-as-usual and a revolution towards a more humane or sustainable tourism, on the one hand, and an already conflicted debate over the nature of the neighbourhood, on the other one, interacts with the wider situation of urban tourist destinations in Western Europe and with the practices of discourses unveiled in Chueca. The article argues for the pandemic’s role as a catalyst for pre-existing conflicts, as local and global processes intertwine.
Between the city and the country: Heterogeneous victimization experiences among LGBTI individuals
(Taylor & Francis, 2022-08-02) Domínguez Ruiz, Ignacio Elpidio
The wide range of victimization experiences and life conditions of LGBTI individuals (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex), far from being homogeneous, shows a significant geographical variation. Within countries and global regions, but even within provinces and smaller territories, unequal experiences have caught both academic and media attention, providing key concepts and insights. The disparities between European Union member states, for instance, have fuelled comparisons between Western and Eastern countries. Drawing from Spanish survey data on victimization experiences and life conditions of LGBTI individuals, this paper explores how said experiences relate to the respondents' place of residence, within a rural-urban continuum. The chi-squared test of independence and the use of standardized residuals allows us to reject the apparent homogeneity of experiences among LGBTI individuals, as well as to distinguish between the specificities of each participant category along the spatial continuum. This paper argues for a nuanced perspective that prioritizes disparities and inequalities rather than commonalities, while also considering the shared system of oppression that informs said differences.
De dins cap enfora i a l'inrevés: espais geogràfics i activistes al voltant del World Pride 2017
(Departament de Geografia, 2021-09-17) Domínguez Ruiz, Ignacio Elpidio
[cat] La celebració del World Pride 2017 a Madrid, una mena d'Orgull LGTBI global, va definir un nou equilibri entre els espais simbòlics i les organitzacions vinculades a l'esdeveniment. Aquest article es nodreix d'un treball de camp etnogràfic desenvolupat dins l'activisme LGTBI i l'administració local, amb accés íntim a l'organització del megaesdeveniment. L'anàlisi se centra en l'ampliació dels contextos activistes i geogràfics habituals de l'Orgull de Madrid al voltant de la festa del 2017. L'Ajuntament de Madrid 2015-2019, mitjançant noves eines de patrocini i de coordinació, va afavorir un esdeveniment on el conegut barri de Chueca i les organitzacions activistes habituals van continuar sent el territori i els agents principals, però alhora espais nous i associacions crítiques rebien també finançament i visibilitat, en desconcentrar conscientment les celebracions i les activitats.
Bourdieu en el World Pride 2017: especies de capital dentro y alrededor de un evento turístico
(Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 2020-04-16) Domínguez Ruiz, Ignacio Elpidio
[spa] El Orgullo LGTBI ¿lesbianas, gays, transexuales, bisexuales, intersexuales? de Madrid es uno de los mayores eventos de la ciudad e incluye una de las manifestaciones más multitudinarias del mundo por la diversidad sexual y de género. En 2017 el evento fue aún más relevante al acoger la ciudad el World Pride 2017, un Orgullo a nivel global bajo una marca propiedad de una oenegé multinacional. AEGAL, la principal asociación empresarial LGTBI madrileña, fue la titular directa de la marca-evento, apoyándose en oenegés activistas y en administraciones públicas para organizar un Orgullo sin precedentes, que llevó a una pluralidad de agentes a relacionarse. En este artículo se presenta un análisis de dichas relaciones desde la óptica de algunos de los conceptos clave de la obra de Pierre Bourdieu, como son campo social y, sobre todo, capital. Las diferentes especies de capital en el seno del evento son analizadas para comprobar la utilidad del marco conceptual bourdiano para el estudio de eventos y, en general, de relaciones asimétricas entre agentes.
Scoping Review of Methodologies and Topics in Social Science Research on Children’s Sexuality 2000–2024
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2025-10-15) Torra-Merín, Marti; Domínguez Ruiz, Ignacio Elpidio
The conjunction between Childhood and Sexuality in Social Science research constitutes a rather peculiar topic. While it can be traced back to early twentieth century, it was not until the 1970s and 80s that it became a consolidated topic. While different types of review exist in specific sub-fields of Children’s Sexuality research, no one has yet attempted to examine the trends of the field as a whole. As a result, we are left with a fragmented view of it that limits the identification of much-needed perspectives and topics. Therefore, conducting a review aimed at understanding the main characteristics of this research field—i.e. topic trends and methodological approaches—to assess its overall health, becomes urgent. Via a scoping review, we find that publications in the field have grown since the turn of the century but remain concentrated in topics that prioritize adult’s perspectives over children’s realities. Additionally, they are primarily based on survey and discursive methodologies, while ethnographic and observational methods are largely overlooked. Therefore, we conclude that while the research field is in good health in terms of publication volume, it is both important and urgent to address these limitations.
The political work of emotions: care, pandemic, and protest in Spain
(Pontificia Universidade Catolica de Rio Grande do Sul, 2024-06-19) Márquez Porras, Raúl; Bofill Poch, Sílvia
[eng] We analyse the impact of the pandemic on the care system in Spain.In particular, we focus on the perspective of relatives to illuminate the crisis of theresidential care model that the Covid-19 pandemic brought to light. The pandemichad a major impact on Spanish care homes, with one of the highest mortalityrates in the European Union. This caused suffering, not only for residents, but alsofor relatives, who reacted by mobilising and demanding political accountability.In line with the anthropology of emotions, we analyse the emotional grammarsunderlying the protest to show how the suffering of relatives becomes intelligiblein the framework of a residential care model in crisis, and how it acquires politicalvalue beyond the private and individual sphere in which care is usually understood.Thus, we show the political work of emotions and their analytical potentialin examining the transformations and challenges of the current care system
The Jumara Festival of Panamá: Cinema and Body in Motion
(Universidade Estadual de Campinas, 2021-07-24) Izard Martínez, Gabriel
[eng[ Based on an ethnography of the First Jumara International Indigenous Film Festival, which took place in an Emberá community in Panama, the aim of this article is to delve deeper into the connection between the processes of ethnicity derived from Indigenous cinema and the processes of ethnicity derived from the meaning given to that cinema at specific events. At Jumara, Indigenous cinema was the reason for affirming Emberá culture and for championing, in a markedly festive and performative way, the group's main demands in a celebration in which the body and its ornamentation took on a special role. It is argued that the ethnographic focus on festivals organized in Indigenous communities makes it possible to fully analyze the committed and activist dimension of Indigenous cinema.
Dissident Blood: Neo-Santeria in Barcelona and the Refusal of Sacrifices
(MDPI, 2024-11-01) Pons Raga, Marta
This article explores the emergence and development of Neo-santeria in Barcelona, a con- temporary trend of Afro-Cuban religious practices characterized by the rejection of animal sacrifice, a central ritual in traditional Santeria. The study identifies and analyzes four key arguments employed by Neo-santeros to legitimize this rejection within the secular and modern European context: the scientistic, de-traditionalist, individualistic, and ecologist arguments. Drawing on over a decade of ethnographic research, the article demonstrates how Neo-santeros navigate the tension between distancing themselves from certain traditional spiritual roots—particularly the practice of animal sacrifice—and the intertwining with European and contemporary cultural logics, particularly those related to secularism. The article situates Neo-santeria within the broader landscape of European holistic spiritualities, highlighting its strategic positioning as a religion that aligns with and challenges secularist expectations in modern Europe. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how Afro-Cuban religions, particularly Neo-Santería, can be defined by the ongoing creativity of their practitioners. This distinctive feature not only defines the fluid nature of these traditions but also contributes to the diversification and increased complexity of the spiritual landscape in European contexts, where Afro-Cuban practices are being intertwined in local cultural and religious frameworks.
Opinião de estudantes de Nutrição sobre alimentação e sobre sua futura profissão
(2024-09-02) Koritar, Priscila; Gaspar Prata, Maria Clara; Larrea Killinger, Cristina; Alvarenga Dos Santos, Marie
[por] Embora se acredite que os nutricionistas utilizem suas opiniões sobre alimentos em sua prática profissional, poucos estudos avaliaram as concepções sobre alimentos e saúde entre nutricionistas, e tal avaliação pode ser útil para entender a formação universitária e refletir sobre possíveis implicações profissionais. Métodos: O estudo buscou compreender o papel dos alimentos e o que significa ser nutricionista na perspectiva de estudantes de Nutrição brasileiros (495 em 34 instituições no estado de São Paulo), por meio das perguntas: "Qual você considera ser o principal papel dos alimentos?" e "Para mim, ser nutricionista significa...". As respostas foram analisadas com o suporte do software AtlasTi e codificadas em categorias analíticas com base na análise de conteúdo. Resultados: Do total, 93% eram mulheres e 20% estavam matriculadas em instituições públicas. Duas categorias principais foram definidas para alimentos: aspectos biológicos e psicossocioculturais, e duas para nutricionistas: promotor de saúde e promotor de saúde integral; 69% indicaram a função dos alimentos como apenas biológica e 61,3% veem o nutricionista apenas como um promotor de saúde, considerando apenas aspectos fisiológicos. Estudantes de instituições públicas responderam mais para aspectos psicossocioculturais e promoção de saúde integral (p<0,0001). Conclusão: A maioria dos participantes apresenta opiniões sobre alimentos focando principalmente nos aspectos biológicos e de saúde física. O possível impacto dessas opiniões na prática profissional deve ser discutido e abordado, para que a graduação possa expandir a formação crítica e melhorar a prática profissional.
