description The present article analyzes the conditions of social integration of the refugee population in Spain during the period 2012-2016, based on qualitative research data. For that purpose, the authors analyze the current situation of the issue in Europe and particularly in Spain, collects the main data on the sociodemographic profile of the refugees, and finally, exposes the results obtained in the research. During their first five years of incorporation, refugees in Spain are emulating the same vulnerable conditions of integration as in other European countries, mainly marked by job insecurity, housing poverty and economic uncertainty. The factors that explain this situation are as much of structural origin —institutional or economic— as social and personal —language or weakness of social networks—. The Spanish system of reception and social integration is unable to reverse this trend, so is in much need of proposals for reform and revision.
