Resumen de Alistamento e emigración exterior na España da Restauración
- English
The present paper proposes the use of enlistment statistics as a source for the study of external migration in Spain during a period, the Restoration, for which there are few sources. Particularly useful at local level, they are a fundamental tool for enabling people, not journeys, to be counted, thereby enabling us to consider questions as important as that of permanence, as well as to analyse the professional profile and geographical location of emigrants and the degree of kinship between them. The main advantages of this source of information on men called up for military service is that it is reliable, representative and covers an extended period of time.

Este traballo propón o alistamento como fonte para o estudo da emigración exterior española para unha etapa, a Restauración, na que non abundan as fontes. Especialmente útil para o ámbito local, é unha ferramenta fundamental para poder contar persoas en lugar de viaxes e achegarnos, así, a cuestións tan importantes como a permanencia, ademais de poder analizar o perfil profesional, a localización xeográfica ou as relacións de parentesco dos emigrantes.
Fiabilidade, representatividade e amplitude cronolóxica son as bazas fundamentais desta fonte que ofrece información sobre os homes que son chamados ao cumprimento do servizo militar.
