Economic Crisis and Anti-Immigrant Sentiment: The Case of Andalusia

Economic Crisis and Anti-Immigrant Sentiment: The Case of Andalusia

Abstract

[EN] This paper provides three interrelated reasons not to confound perceptions of economic group-threat with hostility toward people of foreign origin. Firstly, I argue that expansive notions of prejudice impede analyzing attitudes toward immigration and immigrants with sufficient precision. Secondly, the recent evolution in the Southern Spanish region of Andalusia illustrates divergent trajectories: anti-immigrant sentiment remained subdued despite surging unemployment and perceived conflict-of-interest. Thirdly, various factors are found to contain anti-immigrant sentiment amidst inauspicious economic circumstances and regardless of perceived group-competition. The study shows that attitudes towards immigrants hinge on a complex array of predispositions and perceptions, rather than economic facts and interests per se.

[ES] Este artículo proporciona tres razones conexas por las que percepciones de competencia grupal no deben confundirse con hostilidad hacia las personas de procedencia extranjera. Primero, se argumenta que concepciones expansivas del prejuicio acaban desdibujando el análisis de las actitudes en materia migratoria. Segundo, se observan trayectorias dispares de competencia grupal percibida, por un lado, y animosidad antiinmigrante, por otro. Tercero, se identifican varios factores que disminuyen el sentimiento antiinmigrante, pese a circunstancias económicas desalentadoras y al margen de competencia grupal percibida. El estudio demuestra que las actitudes hacia el colectivo inmigrante no dependen sin más de hechos e intereses económicos, sino de un complejo entramado de predisposiciones y percepciones.
