"El estudio de Moya va a marcar la divisoria entre un 'antes' y un 'despues' en los esdudios migratorios, no solo en Espana y Argentina, sino en otros muchos paises de ambos lados del Atlantico. Todos los historiadores nos podemos felicitar por la aparicion de este hermoso trabajo, escrito con elegancia y sobriedad, tan novedoso y esclarecedor de un momento historico que nos marco a todos para siempre. [Moya's study will mark the division between "before" and "after" in migration studies, not only in Spain and Argentina, but also in many other countries on both sides of the Atlantic. All historians can congratulate ourselves for the appearance of this beautiful work, written with elegance and sobriety, so original and illuminating of a historical moment that marked us all for ever.]"--"Cuadernos Hispanoamericanos (Madrid)

Reseña del editor:

More than four million Spaniards came to the Western Hemisphere between the mid-19th century and the Great Depression. Unlike that of most other Europeans, their major destination was Argentina, not the United States. Presenting original research within a broad comparative framework, Jose C. Moya examines immigration to Argentina, one of the world's primary "settler" societies. Moya moves between micro- and macro-analysis to illuminate the immigration phenomenon. Material from immigrant associations, national and village archives, and interviews with surviving participants in Argentina and Spain inform his discussion of the origins of Spanish immigration, residence patterns, community formation, labour and cultural cognitive aspects of the immigration process. In addition, he provides material on other immigrant groups in Argentina and gives a critique of major issues in migration studies.
