This article analyses the social protection strategies that Latin American transnational families have deployed to cope with the new regime of (im)mobilities that emerged after the COVID‐19 crisis. It reflects on how the pandemic has restructured the articulation of the family welfare model and the migration regime in Spain. From a theoretical point of view, it combines the analysis of family strategies of “transnational social protection” with the approach of spatial and social (im)mobilities. The article also includes a multilevel analysis (macro, meso, micro) of the connections between care and migration. A mixed methodology was used: (1) the exploitation of secondary sources to show the impact of the Covid‐19 crisis on Latin American immigrant families in Spain; and (2) an analysis of ethnographic material consisting of in‐depth interviews (n = 41) with transnational families (n = 13) whose members reside both in Spain (n = 27) and their countries of origin (n = 14). The results show that after the COVID‐19 crisis, an “assemblage of spatial and social (in)mobilities” was generated for the immigrant population. They highlight the social blockages that the immigrant population had to face: legal, residential, occupational, and care, and also how informal arrangements to solve these immobilities are led by women. Families who were further along in the migration cycle or who had social capital (relatives in Spain) were less affected by the impact of the crisis.

在（im）Mobilities的集合中导航护理：后疫情时期拉丁美洲跨国家庭的社会保护战略


本文分析了拉丁美洲跨国家庭为应对 COVID-19 危机后出现的（不能）流动的新制度而部署的社会保护策略。它反映了大流行如何重组西班牙家庭福利模式和移民制度的表达。从理论的角度来看，它结合了对“跨国社会保护”的家庭战略的分析与空间和社会（不）移动性的方法。本文还包括对护理和迁移之间联系的多层次分析（宏观、中观、微观）。使用了混合方法：（1） 利用二手资料来显示 Covid-19 危机对西班牙拉丁美洲移民家庭的影响;（2） 对人种学材料的分析，包括对跨国家庭 （n = 41） 的深入访谈 （n = 13），这些家庭的成员同时居住在西班牙 （n = 27） 和他们的原籍国 （n = 14）。结果表明，在 COVID-19 危机之后，移民人口产生了“空间和社会（不可）流动性的组合”。它们强调了移民人口必须面对的社会障碍：法律、居住、职业和护理，以及解决这些行动不便的非正式安排是如何由女性领导的。在移民周期中处于较远阶段的家庭或拥有社会资本的家庭（在西班牙的亲戚）受危机影响的影响较小。
