Foreing Inmigration in Galician

Although the number of foreign immigrants in Galicia is smaller than that of Mediterranean regions or Madrid, it is now in eighth place in Spain as regards the volume (in absolute terms) of immigrants living in Galicia. In relation to the group of returnees, Galicia is the region that receives the most (10,050 in 2002), resulting in an important contingent with a predominance of those of working age (only 24% are over 65)

In view of this new situation, Decree 196/2003 of March 20th, concerning the Emigration Department’s organic structure, created the Directorate General for Immigration Support. This unit is in charge of implementing regional policy in relation to national and foreign immigration, as well as carrying out state policy in this field.

Census 2001

The Republic of Cape Verde is a republic located on an archipelago in the Macaronesia ecoregion of the North Atlantic Ocean off the western coast of Africa. The previously uninhabited islands were discovered and colonized by the Portuguese in the fifteenth century.

Cape Verde is an archipelago off the west coast of Africa. It is formed by 10 main islands and about 8 islets.The main islands are:

Barlavento(northern island group)

•Santo Antão •São Vicente •Santa Luzia •São Nicolau•Sal•Boa Vista

Sotavento(southern island group)

•Maio •Santiago•Fogo •Brava

History

•Cape Verde was uninhabited when the Portuguese arrived in 1456 and made the islands part of the Portuguese empire. Due to its location off the coast of Africa Cape Verde became an important watering station, then sugar cane plantation site, and later a major center of the slave trade.

•In 1975, the islands achieved independence, partly due to the efforts of the African Party for the Independence of Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde (PAIGC). After independence, the PAIGC attempted to unite Cape Verde and Guinea-Bissau into one nation, the PAIGC controlling both governments, but a coup in the latter nation in 1980 ended these plans.

• In Cape Verde itself the PAICV (affiliated with the PAIGC) governed until democratic elections, held in 1991, resulted in a change of government. The Movimento para a Democracia (MPD) won that election. The MPD was re-elected in 1996. The PAICV returned to power in 2001, and were re-elected in 2006

Language

Cape Verde have two languages: Cape Verdean Creole, the mother tongue to all the population, and Portuguese, the official language.

These two languages have different functions in the Cape Verdeans’ life and different status in Cape Verdean society. Creole is the language of feelings, dreams, traditions, daily relationship, resistance and fight for independence. Portuguese is the language of law, school, written literature, media, contact with foreigners, in other words, the language of the official situations.

In the Cape Verdean Diaspora we just find one language, Cape Verdean Creole. This language is transnational and keeps all Cape Verdeans connected with each other and

with the homeland. It is maybe the strongest cultural reference in the Diaspora.

There is a substantial body of literature in these languages, especially in the Crioulo of Santiago (badiu) and the Crioulo of São Vicente (criol d' Soncent). The Crioulo languages have been gaining prestige since the nation's independence from Portugal, and there is a movement to make the variant of Santiago the official language of the country.

The differences between the languages spoken in different islands, each with its traditional spelling system, has been a major obstacle in the way of this move. Some people have advocated the development of two normalized official languages: a North (Barlavento) standard, centered on the Crioulo of San Vicente, and a South (Sotavento) standard, centered on that of Santiago

Portuguese and Cape Verdean Creole are similar but yet very different.

In the process of learning a second language there is usually linguistic interference from the native language. We can found influences of one language to the other. There are examples of interferences of Creole in Spanish and in Galician languages.

Cape Verde is a small nation that lacks resources and has experienced severe droughts. Agriculture is made difficult by lack of rain, and is restricted to only four islands for most of the year.

More Cape Verdeans live abroad than in Cape Verde, with significant emigrant Cape Verdean communities in:

•America: United States (500,000 Cape Verdeans), Brazil, Argentina.

•Africa: Angola (45,000), São Tomé and Príncipe, Senegal

•Europe: Portugal (80. 000), Spain, France, Netherlands, Germany.

The Cape Verdian emigration to Burela start to arrive in the seventies. That was masculine, working in the secondary sector (industry and mining) and in the primary sector (fishing), non-qualified.

When they arrive in Spain (a fortuitous destination because their aim was Holland, where a Cape Verdian firm settlement already existed) in 1975 and 1976, Spain was a traditional country where emigration took place like other countries in the south of Europe and the north of Africa.

Inflow of working classes in this region to sectors like fishing and building

has been constant since the seventies.

The Cape Verdian in Burela

Cape Verde was traditionally included in a “migration pattern”, where

men migrate, mostly as sailors, and women stay at home taking care of

children and the household.

In the last decades, however, things have changed and a great part of

women migrated as well. (They are in a re-agrupation familiar process)

They have learned adult education, computer courses and working.
