2 Contents 1. Background & justification 2. Methodology - Netnography 3. Analysis and results 4. Conclusion
3 Growing interest in Citizenship studies Citizenship is one of the two key ingredients of the Nation State (territory + people) Different approaches: Citizenship as belonging / identity Citizenship as a bundle of rights and obligations Citizenship as nationality (passport) Transnationalism literature interested in dual/multiple nationality (States within States) Absent citizens / Citizenship a la carte (Fitzgerald) Extraterritorial Political Rights (Escobar)
4 Acquisition of nationality & migration Recent interest in facilitating naturalisation of immigrants in EU as an integration policy (residents focus) Post-1992 Maastricht treaty effect - 2 ingredients: EU citizenship = Any EU nationality Full mobility for EU nationals Increasing benefits of an EU nationality little studied Entry (esp. from tourist visa countries ) Permanence (bypasses migrant residency legislation in 30 countries) Intra-EU Mobility (Schengen effect, access to large labour market) Exit (multiple return, access to welfare) But very different policies of nationality acquisition across Europe (Baubock, 2006; 2 volume IMISCOE book)
5 Ancestry: a passport to Europe Adverts in a magazine for the Portuguese speaking community in London German Citizenship - Don t loose your citizenship because of lack of information Consulting and Geneaology Complete advice and Genealogical research Search of your ancestors in Italy Offices in Italy Offices in Brazil
6 Ethnic preferences in EU nationality laws exploited by migrants Some testimonies from our study it is now common to see Madrid full of Latin Americans who are grandchildren of Italians, living legally in Spain, while the grandchildren of Spaniards are in many cases living illegally here.. (Ricardo, Brasilian) Why can a great-great-grandchild of an Italian live legally in Spain and a grandchild of Spaniards cannot? It is very unfair that if one person has only one Italian great-great-grandparent can obtain the Italian nationality and live in Spain without problems, while I have four Spanish grandparents and I m just a foreigner in Spain. (Laura, Argentinean)
7 Process of acquisition of EU citizenships General lack of knowledge on nationality acquisition by birth and by non-residents Stark variation in Jus Soli & Jus Sanginis provisions across Europe Preference for ethnic populations : Germany, Italy, Greece, Hungary, etc 60 million people world-wide have the right to claim Italian ancestry (Guido Tintori) De and Re-ethnicisation of citizenship (Joppke)
8 Growth of naturalisation through residence Nationality concessions (left) vs. permanent residents of foreign nationality (right) 90,000 ( ) 5,000,000 80,000 Total naturalised = 523,106 people 4,500,000 Concesiones de nacionalidad española 70,000 60,000 50,000 40,000 30,000 20,000 10, Concesión de nacionalidad espanola por residencia Extranjeros con permiso de residencia ,000,000 3,500,000 3,000,000 2,500,000 2,000,000 1,500,000 1,000,000 Source:: Concesiones de nacionalidad, compiladas de Clarke et al (1998), y Anuario Estadístico de Inmigración (varios años), ver (Ministerio de Trabajo e Inmigración, 2009) 500,000 0 Población extranjera con permiso de residencia
9 Spanish nationality rules Jus sanginis in general country of emigration Transmission by ancestry only from parents with Spanish nationality at the time when the person was born (not grandparents) recent changes in legislation have removed age limitation to register births from Spanish citizens abroad Acquisition by residence By marriage 1 year of marriage and legal residence in Spain By residence 2 years of legal residence for Ibero-American countries, Philipines, Ecuatorial Guinea and Sephardic Jews 10 years for all other countries Period of residence under a full residence permit (excludes students, temporary permits, etc)

12 Research objectives Spanish nationality To explore examples of different strategies adopted to access an EU nationality Spain To map out the hierarchy of countries of origin according to the residence or ancestry routes To gain understanding of the underlying reasons of acquisition of an EU nationality To distil lessons for future work in measuring acquisition of nationality beyond the naturalisation route To test an innovative research methodology

21 Clear ancestry-residence gradient Driven by: history of Spanish emigration in 20 th century preferences in Spanish nationality law for Iberoamericans history of immigration flows (Morocco) immigrant sex ratios / rates of intermarriage
22 Large backlog of nationality applications and registrations Waiting time of nationality requests: Mean: 1 year 9 months Mode: 2 years Additional waiting time to register the new nationality and get passport: 1-2 years Waiting times increase irregular situation after residence permits expire. Average time since first arrival to Spanish passport: 4-6 years (small sample)
23 Irregularity is a transition between statuses A large number of cases show people entitled to Spanish nationality who are irregularly in Spain or in a legal limbo because of the lengthy administrative process My case is as follows, I got Spanish nationality (great!) after this I requested the nationality for my two daughters but after a year and a half I have no news at all. [ ] One of them is now 18 and her residence permit has expired for several months [ ] I am desperate and feel powerless because my phone calls and enquiries are going nowhere. My daughters have been living in Spain for 7 years and one of them needs to work but can t. The nationality will be the solution but we don t know nothing about how the process is going or how much longer we have to wait. If any one can answer my questions please help. (Marisa, Ecuatorian)
24 Transnational lives or insurance policy? 96 people declare future residence intentions. 58% to stay in Spain 19% already returned to country of origin 8% pretends to return 15% come and go between the two countries Hi, I am Colombian and I have Spanish nationality with DNI and everything. I now live in Colombia and my question is, can I loose my [Spanish] nationality for living in Colombia and not in Spain?. If so, what do I need to do not to loose it?. If I return to Spain will I have problems for not having had National Insurance contributions, or as a Spaniards I won t have any problems? (Claudio; Colombian, return migrant living in Colombia) Hello, ( ) my mother is Peruvian 62 years old and wants to request the Spanish nationality, she has been in Spain for 9 years and has made National Insurance contributions for 4 years. I would like to know if she gets Spanish nationality will she receive a pension or not? (Rosario; Peruvia, more than 10 years living in Spain)
25 Nationality is passed on to facilitate further migration Interesting case of nationality transmission through ancestry to regularise migration situation in Spain. I am Cuban and I am as irregular in Spain. My mother is in Cuba and has just obtained the Spanish nationality because her father was Spanish born in Spain, that is, she was Spaniard by birth. I have requested the residence permit for being the daughter of a Spaniard by they have rejected it, what can I do? A year later, after having acquired Spanish nationality she is interested in passing it on to her husband: Hello: I am Cuban and I have Spanish nationality. My husband is in an irregular situation. I would like to know if he has the right to regularise his situation in Spain if we have been married (in Cuba) for 8 years. Regards (Gladys; Cuban, resident in Spain)
26 Strategies: Summary Clear strategies followed to obtain Spanish nationality Residence: a) regularise situation (amnesty, children, spouse) b) move away from student residence permit (work contract) c) marriage to a Spanish or EU national Hierarchy of countries by time of residence requirements Ancestry: Cascading process from the off-spring of a Spanish ancestor. Key to find historical documents and know your way around the complex administrative system, both in Spain and country of origin (consulates providing wrong information)
27 Some more illustrations of these strategies Anybody knows of an solicitor in Alicante? I need to get my grandfather s birth certificate I have been living in Spain for 5 years, but I am now back in Argentina. I would like to get Spanish citizenship to transmit it to my children. (Cristina, Argentinean) [ ] My grandfather was Spanish and we have just managed to get my father s nationality recognised post-mortem by the Spanish consulate in Buenos Aires. This nationality thing is very urgent to me, so that I can pass it to my partner. My siblings live in Argentina but I have been living in Spain for three years but as a student and this time doesn t count at all.[ ] (Ernesto; Argentinean, 3 years living in Spain)
28 Conclusions (I) Interest in accessing Spanish nationality is two-fold: a migration strategy an insurance policy Strong interest in transmission to children and partner Clear hierarchy of countries: ancestry-residence gradient Ancestry route is more prominent Fuzzy boundaries Irregularity / nationality Residence / absent Nationalities / citizenship-denizenship Traditional survey work in countries of origin required (hope to attract EU funding)
29 Conclusions (II) Netnography method (+) cheap to collect & no transcription! (+) honest & detailed responses (in general) (-) incomplete life histories (-) ad hoc research strategy Promising methodological developments in the age of volunteered information and the social web Text mining, blog mining, Facebook API
