Summary: | Nowadays, the classic proposals that differentiate between (i) immigrants and citizens, and (ii) foreigners with and without proper legal status, are being reconsidered and reviewed. In addition, the distinction between “legal immigrants” and “illegal immigrants” for the granting of social rights is an object of controversy. There can be no doubt that immigration (and all matters related to it) is a controversial topic, as could be seen with the controversies that arose by the refusal of the town councils of Vic (Catalunya) and Torrejón de Ardoz (Madrid) to take a population census of illegal immigrants. Nevertheless, are we aware of how many people without proper legal status are living in Spain and each Autonomous Region? This paper offers a survey of the immigration population (with and without proper legal status) in Spain by comparing each Autonomous Region. |
