    Introduction. Migration as a multi-sited phenomenon: Selectivity, transnationalism, and multiple comparisons in a growing field
    (Editorial CSIC, 2025-12-30) Zuccotti, Carolina Viviana; Muñoz Comet, Jacobo Fernando; Agencia Estatal de Investigación; European Union’s Horizon 2020
    As migration and ethnic diversity become fundamental aspects of our societies, there is a need to expand the perspectives and methodologies used to study the drivers, the outcomes, and the experiences of migration. Migration is a multi-sited phenomenon in which both origin and destination(s) play a fundamental role. This perspective, though intuitively central to the understanding of migration, has not often been the focus of empirical sociological research. The proposal brings together seven original articles and seventeen migration scholars who uniquely adopt a broadly defined multi-sited approach in their work. The articles address diverse geographic contexts and apply both quantitative and qualitative methods to examine topics such as migrant selection, comparisons between migrants and non-migrants, and transnational networks. Together, they demonstrate the value of adopting multi-sited perspectives to capture the diversity and complexity of migration dynamics.

    Who migrates and where? Insights into global migrant selectivity through South American migration
    (Editorial CSIC, 2025-12-30) Platt, Lucinda; Zuccotti, Carolina Viviana; Agencia Estatal de Investigación; European Union’s Horizon 2020
    International migrants, especially those migrating for economic reasons, typically differ from non-migrant co-nationals in both observed (e.g., education) and unobserved characteristics (e.g., motivation). However, knowledge about such migrant selectivity, particularly from the Global South, remains limited. South America is a key region for studying this issue, as half of South American migrants live in another South American country, while the other half reside in Europe or the US. Using harmonized census data from IPUMS, we explore how migrant educational selectivity varies by origin and destination, and how it evolves over three decades (1990s–2010s). We show that South American migrants are selected in general but are more selected when moving to more distant or challenging locations, such as the US. At the same time, intraregional moves can also be highly selective, and at times resemble those directed toward Europe (where selectivity remains lower than to the US).

    Spatial Segregation: Form, Consequences, and Dynamics
    (Oxford University Press, 2025-10-22) Zuccotti, Carolina Viviana
    This chapter explores the concept of spatial segregation, which refers to the geographical concentration of individuals with similar characteristics. It discusses the relationship between social and spatial inequalities and explores how spatial structures are influenced by human behavior and also shape it. The chapter focuses on two key dimensions of segregation: socioeconomic and ethnic/racial. It covers the essential themes in segregation research, including the methods for measuring segregation (form and characteristics), the neighborhood effects (consequences), and the factors that create and sustain segregation (dynamics). It highlights the importance of measuring segregation from multiple perspectives, discusses how living in deprived or ethnically concentrated areas can impact residents’ outcomes, and highlights the value of longitudinal perspectives in understanding neighborhood dynamics. The chapter concludes by reviewing recent advancements in data collection and computational methods, providing deeper insights into the causes and effects of segregation and suggesting future research directions.
