dc.description.abstract | There has been a vast amount of research on
the changes experienced by immigrants, but little is known
about the changes experienced by host individuals. This
article focuses on the role of host individuals in the networks
of relations between immigrant populations and the
communities from the dominant culture, as well as the
changes experienced by host individuals because of their
continuous contact with immigrants. This research applied
a network approach to the study of the acculturation of host
individuals. Two independent studies were carried out: a
systematic analysis of the personal networks of Argentinean
(n = 67), Ecuadorian (n = 59), Italian (n = 37) and
German (n = 37) residents in Seville and Cadiz (Spain)
(Study 1); and an ethnographic study with human service
workers for Latin American immigrants in Boston (USA)
(Study 2). With two different strategies, the role of host
individuals in personal networks of foreigners in the United
States and Spain was analyzed. The results show that host
individuals tend to have less centrality than compatriots,
showing an overall secondary role in the personal networks
of immigrants. The lowest average centrality was observed
in recent and temporal migrants, whereas the highest corresponded
to the individuals with more time of residence in
Spain. The personal networks of human service providers
in the United States vary in ethnic composition and in their structural properties, and therefore shape different types of
integrative bridges for immigrants. | es |
