abstract: 'Research on the role of co-ethnic ties in immigrants'' labour market
outcomes has reached mixed conclusions. Some argue they are a valuable
resource, increasing immigrants'' labour force participation and wages;
others find negative effects such as trapping workers in low-quality
employment. Thus far very few quantitative studies have investigated
systematically the circumstances under which migrant networks work.
Taking advantage of unique data on Senegalese men in France, Italy and
Spain, this paper shows that the receiving context shapes the role of
pre-migration ties. In France, where the Senegalese community is
well-established and socio-economically diverse, networks lead to better
economic prospects. In contrast, pre-migration ties in Italy and Spain
mostly lead to the perpetuation of ethnic niches developed by the
Senegalese in small and precarious trade activities. The article
emphasizes the benefits of adopting a comparative and diachronic
approach and calls for future work on the factors shaping the role of
networks.'
