    Racial capitalism, migration and the platform economy: emerging articulations of informality within digital precarious labor in Madrid
    (Emerald, 2025-10-28) Santamarina Guerrero, Ana; Fernández Trujillo Moares, Francisco José
    Purpose This paper examines how platform economies extract value from the exclusionary dimensions of migration regimes to drive accumulation. Through the lens of racial capitalism, we analyze how informality functions as a key mechanism in shaping novel forms of racialization, labor stratification and devaluation. Design/methodology/approach This study draws on cross-sectoral qualitative research based on in-depth interviews with migrant workers in cleaning, care delivery and multitask platforms in Madrid. We use a racial capitalism framework to explore the intersections between informality, exclusionary border regimes, platform labor and migrant agency. Findings Informality appears as a structural logic of platformization. We identify three critical ways in which platforms intersect with informality and precarious migration statuses: through account subletting practices; the amplification of racialized profiles assigned to specific types of work; and the emergence of new forms of violence shaped by intersections of gender, race and migratory status. Nevertheless, we underscore the dual role of informality not only as a driver for exploitation but also as a terrain where solidarities take shape. Originality/value The key contributions of this paper lie in its cross-sectoral analysis of platform labor, shifting the focus from specific working conditions to the structural dynamics inherent to platform economies, integrating an intersectional perspective into the study of labor experiences on digital platforms. We move beyond the conventional dichotomy between migrant vulnerability and traditional unionism, exploring alternative agencies and solidarity networks emerging within these contexts.

    Learning with political movements: social reproductive politics as a scholar-activist methodology
    (Taylor and Francis Group/Routledge, 2025-02-22) Santamarina Guerrero, Ana
    This paper makes critical contributions to progressive and radical traditions of scholar-activist investigation in social movement studies, drawing on my research with the No Evictions Network in Glasgow, a migrant-solidarity space that challenged the large-scale eviction of 300 asylum seekers by UK Home Office contractor Serco. Pushing forward radical research practices, the paper introduces a focus on ‘learning with political movements’ that centers the knowledge produced by grassroots communities. Through suggesting social reproductive politics as an integral research ethics and a methodology, this approach seeks to break divisions between ‘intellectual’ and ‘material’ scholar-activist labor in these spaces, foregrounding their mutually constitutive dimension. It engages with questions of positionality and reflexivity, interrogating the politics of scholar-activism in contexts of racialized, gendered, and classed exclusion. My research demonstrates how the scholar-activist practicing of social reproductive politics fosters the formation of non-hierarchical relationships of friendship, comradeship, and care with precarious communities, allowing a focus on ‘learning with political movements’. Finally, I analyze how the prefigurative effect of these politics contributes to the sustainment of social and material spaces of political struggle, challenging neoliberal notions of academic impact.
