Abstract

The aim of this article is to show that it is necessary to consider the negative, latent and lost ties, and those with the quality "zero" when studying the formation, change and reaffirmation of residential intentions and decisions. We use the case of Ukrainian immigrants residing in Spain, where we focus on the negative ties and the effects of relational strain among third parties, applying the approach of qualitative social network analysis. We pinpoint the compositional and structural characteristics of negative ties that are significant concerning decision-making process and constructing collecting data tools.
