La migración de retorno en perspectiva. Una aproximación a los factores de incidencia del caso argentino, 2008-2016

Resumen

This article analyzes the main factors involved in the decision making process of returning from Argentina to Spain. The return represents the last stage of a two-way migratory process, it consists of one phase of the migration cycle that should not be viewed as necessarily final and permanent. We understand this mobility as an intimate process of social interconnection in conjunction with the logic of emigration and immigration and other processes of social transformation. So it raises a frame work of epistemic-methodology that allows the local, national, global and transnational interconnections. The first findings of the research emphasize that the determinants of the returns are just products of the logical interdependence. From a qualitative approach we analyze the case of Argentina through 35 in-depth interviews to post-returnees who returned from Spain between 2008 and 2016. Analytically the macro-structural contexts are determinants that also impact the elements that make up the micro-meso level, mainly linked to the type of migration of the subject, since this also affects the decision to return
