“…Los vínculos familiares y las redes sociales locales juegan un papel determinante y se traducen en un fuerte arraigo territorial (Spilimbergo y Ubeda, 2004;González-Enríquez y Martínez-Romera, 2017). El mercado inmobiliario, carente de un stock público en alquiler y con elevadas tasas de propiedad con hipoteca, dificulta el acceso a la vivienda y la rotación residencial (Oswald, 1999;Azevedo et al, 2016;Gerolimeto y Magrini, 2018). La intensidad de las migraciones también se asocia con el calendario en los distintos eventos del ciclo de vida (Bernard et al, 2014).…”

Migraciones internas, inmigración exterior y emigración de españoles hacia M. González-Leonardo el extranjero: un balance por nivel educativo. ¿Es España un país de baja movilidad? 592 Documents d'Anàlisi Geogràfica 2020, vol. 66/3 Résumé. Analyser les migrations internes, l'immigration étrangère et l'émigration des Espagnols à l'étranger selon le niveau d'éducation. L'Espagne est-elle un pays avec une faible mobilité ?Des études comparatives affirment que l'Espagne est un pays à faible mobilité interne. Cependant, cette affirmation généraliste cache une hétérogénéité géographique plus complexe, notamment car l'intensité migratoire diffère selon le territoire et le niveau d'éducation des individus. Par exemple, tandis que les soldes migratoires entre les provinces espagnoles sont relativement équilibrés pour des populations autochtones peu qualifiées, à l'exception des logiques spatiales de la déconcentration, l'analyse de la dynamique migratoire des jeunes diplômés de l'université révèle d'importants processus d'expulsion et de causalité cumulative. En termes quantitatifs, l'émigration des Espagnols à l'étranger est insignifiante par rapport à la mobilité interne. Enfin, en ce qui concerne l'immigration étrangère, elle a contribué à nourrir le processus d'accumulation de capital humain qualifié dans les zones où étaient déjà concentrées les talents autochtones alors que les immigrés les moins qualifiés se sont installés dans les provinces qui séculairement ont un solde migratoire négatif.

“…17. The southern model of housing has some distinctive characteristics in comparison with the rest of Europe (Azevedo et al , 2016; Allen, 2006; Ferrera, 1996; Leibfried, 1992): high homeownership rates and high rates of second home ownership, low quantities of rental and social housing and the important role of the family in the provision of housing access.…”

Purpose This study aims to explore the current situation of universal accessibility to multi-unit buildings in three European countries (Spain, Germany and Sweden), in view of the lack of effective European rules on this topic, with the aim to identify which legal frameworks and policies may be useful to favour it. Design/methodology/approach The results presented in this work are based on empirical data gathered from three surveys conducted in three representative countries of different housing models (Spain, Germany and Sweden). These surveys addressed the grade of accessibility at each point of the route that a person with mobility difficulties, with a physical deficiency or aged +70, has to do to access to their home from a public street or road. Findings The current paper shows that, in the end, there is still a long way to go in terms of universal accessibility to multi-unit buildings in, at least, three European Union Member States as, according to this study’s findings, the percentage of universally accessible multi-unit buildings is limited to 0.6 per cent in Spain, 2.5 per cent in Sweden and 1.5 per cent in Germany. The study also identifies successful legal frameworks and policies among the studied countries that may be useful to achieve a true universal accessibility to flats located in multi-unit buildings. Research limitations/implications The legal frameworks and policies identified in this paper in terms of promoting universal accessibility to housing located in multi-unit buildings may provide guidance to other researchers and policymakers when addressing this topic, thus helping them to reach an egalitarian and inclusive society. Originality/value This paper goes one step further than previous works as it is based on up to date empirical data concerning accessibility and it identifies successful legal frameworks and policies in a comparative perspective.

“…Such values linked to homeownership have been associated with an embedded ideology of homeownership (Ronald 2008), promulgated across many countries, especially over the second half of the past century (Kemeny 1981;1995). Spain was no exception, attaining very high homeownership rates and its own strong 'culture of homeownership,' alongside especially other Southern European countries such as Italy or Portugal (Azevedo, López-Colás, and Módenes 2016).…”
