摘要:This article intends to tackle the subject of international migrations from perspectives which prevent us from analysing the phenomenon simply as an economic or demogra phic matter, and encourage us to enrich the theories with the indispensable incorporation of the migrant’s point of view. What does migration mean? and how is it felt by the persons who play the main role in it? These are questions that can only be answered by adopting an interpretative approach. At the same time, this work examines the role that the symbolic interaction between cultures plays in this process, and the possibility of access, by means of language, to the nature of intercultural relationships.
