General description Sinalaremos as compoñentes principais do modelo migratorio español, as súas fases, variacións e combinacións das citadas compoñentes. Deterémonos nos conceptos que subxacen ao modelo e na súa articulación. Enlazaremos esta descrición coas políticas que deron forma tanto á recepción dos fluxos co mercado de traballo e as ancraxes para a integración. Finalmente, contrastaremos en cada etapa cos resultados empíricos e as tendencias realmente medidas e observadas.
