Resumen:
This dissertation focuses on the inter-ethnic experiences of Polish immigrants in Sagrada Familia neighborhood in Barcelona and Empuriabrava neighborhood in Castelló d'Empúries (Catalonia). The analysis is based on semi-structured interviews done with Polish immigrants and local key informants, supplemented by statistical and documental research. The tested hypothesis assumes that the inter-ethnic experiences of Polish immigrants lead to emergence of opinions about ethnically diverse neighborhoods and about particular groups contacted during everyday¿s life, while the socio-economic and spatial factors modulate both, the possibilities of experiences and the consequent opinions. The results show that variety of socio-spatial factors, like life-stage or urban fabric, influences the possibilities of inter-ethnic experiences. The study also demonstrates that contact with other groups resulted with positive opinions as far as economic and symbolic threats empowered by economic recession do not appear. Therefore, the findings support the interdisciplinary approaches to inter-ethnic relations learned mostly from the discrepancies between Contact and Conflict theories. The results empower comparative focus on immigrants¿ integration in the neighborhoods of large cities and small towns, while acknowledging the importance of socio-spatial features of interactions in context of built and natural environments.
