Abstract
El texto analiza cómo las trayectorias y las características de las tramas asociativas migrantes condicionan el impulso y la puesta en práctica del codesarrollo en la ciudad de Madrid, además de cómo la manera en que ha sido impulsado el codesarrollo ha impactado a su vez en el discurso, la orientación y el proceso de transnacionalización de las asociaciones de migrantes. El análisis de material de campo (revisión de webs y documentos de las asociaciones, entrevistas a representantes asociativos y asistencia a reuniones y a eventos de las organizaciones), muestra que el codesarrollo ha sido entendido como una ventana de oportunidad por las asociaciones, para incidir políticamente de manera transnacional, reforzar su liderazgo y participar en los proyectos políticos de los contextos de origen. El trabajo contribuye a estudiar un tema muy poco trabajado para el caso español y la población latinoamericana. La principal innovación de este texto consiste en vincular el enfoque de las estructuras de oportunidad política con la perspectiva transnacional para conocer con más profundidad el alcance de la participación política transnacional de las asociaciones de migrantes.
The article analyzes how the trajectories and characteristics of migrant associations deter- mine the promotion and implementation of co-development in the city of Madrid, Spain, and how the way co-development has been promoted has impacted on the discourse, orientation and transnationalization process of migrant associations. Through the analysis of field material (review of association websites and documents, interviews with associative representatives and attendance at meetings and events of the organizations), the text shows how co-development has been understood by associations as a window of opportunity to influence politics in a transnational way, strengthen their leadership and participate in political projects in the contexts of origin. The work contributes to the study of a scarcely analyzed topic for the Spanish case and the Latin American population. The main innovation of the study is the link between a political opportunity structures focus and a transnational perspective to explore in greater depth the scope of transnational political participation of migrant associations.
