DESCRIPTION
This research project analyses the formation and evolution of migratory networks and how they act on population distribution in small Spanish towns and rural areas.
These networks, both formal and informal, can help with tasks like finding work or accommodation, and provide needed information on the receiving society. They may be built out of ties of kinship or friendship or those of neighbourhood or community identity.
