contents Symbolic Strategies in Migratory Contexts: Middle-Class Argentineans In Spain Cecilia JIMÉNEZ ZUNINO Demografía Keywords misrecognition Pierre Bourdieu Argentine migrants migratory projects This article is aimed at exploring how migration has affected the class distinction of an immigrant group belonging to Argentine middle-classes in Spain, and the sym - bolic strategies that these immigrants have developed during the migratory process. With Pierre Bourdieu’s theory as a reference, the ways in which agents leverage the cognitive dissonance between the classificatory schemes of origin and destination according to their habitus and previous social trajectories are examined. Based on a qualitative methodology, these strategies relating to two classification axes that tend to position migrant subjects: immigration status and class membership, are analyzed. One of the research findings was how these classifications impact on the perception of possibilities present in the social space of destination, redefining the subjects’ migratory projects. 2014 artículo científico 1665-8906 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=15131361002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=151 Migraciones Internacionales application/pdf El Colegio de la Frontera Norte Migraciones Internacionales (México) Num.4 Vol.7
