Resumen

OLIVEIRA, Catarina Reis de. Immigrants entrepreneurial strategies in Portugal: ethnic and structural opportunities, and personal resources. Sociologia, Problemas e Práticas [online]. 2004, n.45, pp.71-98. ISSN 0873-6529.

In the past, researches make believe that the employment in ethnic businesses was equivalent to an inferior segment of the host societies’ labour market and that decreased the social mobility of immigrants. However recent studies proved that this is not the case. In fact, the employment in ethnic businesses can be the best way to access supervision positions and financial resources to develop other entrepreneurial activities. Having that in mind this article examines these new forms of immigrants’ economic integration in the Portuguese labour market. The characterization of these entrepreneurial strategies is further explored using the results of a survey undertaken with three immigrant populations: Cape-Verdeans, Chinese and Indians.

Palabras clave : Immigration; immigrants entrepreneurial strategies; ethnic opportunities; personal resources.
