Resumo(s)
This paper explores the idea of migrant spatial integration through
an approach focused on urban praxis. Joining other contributions
concerned with the continuing significance of place and locality
for the study of migrant settlement, this paper examines migrants’
urban apprenticeship and how it shapes their usage of city space.
Departing from the idea that to ‘integrate’ urban space involves
being able to navigate it and being aware of its resources, I
introduce an exploratory tool, which brings together processes
normally kept apart in social scientific research, namely urban
experience and migrant integration. Drawing from ethnographic
interviews carried with migrants in Lisbon, Portugal, I argue that
looking at migrants as skilful agents in the practice of city life may
capture how the mechanics of migrant emplacement work in the
context of urban diversity.
