| Sumario: | Mexican migration to Spain has been poorly studied due to their high socio-economic profile, their small number compared to other immigrant groups in that country, and the lesser importance of Spain in Mexican diaspora. However, its analysis will be of great interest, as it will provide valuable knowledge about the settlement of Mexican elites outside the central nucleus of their diaspora. With a mixed methodology, combining quantitative and qualitative ethnographic information of 19 in-depth interviews, this paper studies the elements that, from a demographic and symbolic perspective, allow the categorization and distinction of the Mexican population residing in Spain as a qualified population. Finally, we reflect on the possibility that this migration constitutes an emerging phenomenon that may give rise to migratory chains that expand their volume and sociodemographic range. |
