Resumen
GALLARDO, Francisco José Cuberos. From words to actions: potentials of the ethnographic method for the study of integration policies. Sociologia, Problemas e Práticas [online]. 2013, n.72, pp.123-141. ISSN 0873-6529. https://doi.org/10.7458/SPP2013722621.
Many institutions all over Europe have been working to create forums with the objective of fostering the active participation of immigrants and strengthening their associative networks. The political opportunity structure (POS) concept can help us understand the impact these measures have on the process of integrating immigrants. However, doing so means using an investigative methodology that also picks up on the undesired effects of these policies and analyses their transcendence. This project's main objective is to measure the potentials which the ethnographic method offers in this regard. To this end the authors present an analysis of the city of Seville's (Spain) Municipal Council for Immigrant Participation (CMPI) and its effects on the associative networks of Latin Americans who live in the city.
