Invitation to present studies on immigration for the Social Observatory of “la Caixa”: Resolution
Resolution
The Social Observatory of ”la Caixa” invited researchers interested in disseminating their research work among a non-academic audience to submit their papers (published articles, preprint or working papers) dealing with the subject of immigration.
The Observatory will convert the research papers selected into individual informative articles. For this, it will take on the editorial work and, when necessary, will provide the researcher with a drafting expert, to adapt the original text to a style that is accessible to a broader public. Each article will only be published when the researcher has agreed on the content and drafting.
The selection process of the proposals received was carried out by academic experts linked to the social sciences area and by the team of the Social Observatory of ”la Caixa”.
The papers finally selected were the following:
