Patterns of political transnationalism in a non-traditional Diaspora. The Case of the Swiss Citizens in Latin America
Abstract
La investigación sobre patrones de transnacionalismo político ha tenido un foco predominante en población migrante de países en vías de desarrollo asentada en sociedades desarrolladas. Este artículo es parte de un estudio mayor que ha generado evidencia empírica en un flujo migratorio no tradicional. Usando técnicas virtuales de recolección de datos, se han explorado los niveles en diferentes competencias cívicas de la diáspora suiza afincada en América Latina en relación al sistema político de la sociedad de origen.
Research about patterns of political transnationalism has predominantly had a focus on diasporic population from developing countries settled in developed societies. This article is part of a major study aiming to generate empirical evidence in a non-traditional migrant flow. Using on line data collection tools, Swiss population living in Latin America was surveyed in order to detect how its relationship to the Swiss political system is. Specifically, information about their civic competencies (political knowledge, political efficacy, political attention and political participation) and their levels of ideological continuity/discontinuity was collected. Multiple correspondence analysis was applied to detect the level of influence of different independent variables (demographic profile and migration background).
