| Summary: | For about ten years, the migratory geography of young people of Ecuadorian origin has been changing. After the migratory wave of Ecuadorians in Spain in the years 1990-2000, many young people grew up in the country and acquired Spanish nationality. With the 2008 crisis, these young people face a difficult economic situation, university degrees are no longer a security to find a job. Driven by the need to work, the desire to study elsewhere or simply by the thirst for discovery, they try adventure in London. From this migration, young people will gain experience, learning and most of them leave the parental home. This article examines the emancipation of young people in migration as an economic, social, existential and psychological process. These various forms of emancipation can be superimposed (or not) according to the profiles of the young people and the relationship maintained with the parents during the mobility in London. This article proposes a typology based on this relationship parents-children and highlights the importance of the parental role for the implementation of migration and its quest for emancipation. In addition to parental support, this typology helps to understand what other resources young people can rely on. |
