This article contributes to two interconnected fields of study: recent literature on intra‐EU migration, specifically South–North flows; and scholarship into the impact of intersecting crises on (im)mobilities. Interest in intra‐EU mobilities has increased with the expansion of the EU and especially since the 2008 Great Recession, with a focus mostly on young people and East–West flows. However, based on a mixed‐methods research approach, this article looks at the recent migration of individuals and families from Spain to the UK and Germany, two of the main destinations in Europe. It explores the impacts on (im)mobility strategies of three intersecting “crises”: starting with emigration since 2008, including the erosion of EU mobile citizens' rights culminating in “Brexit,” and ending with the effects of COVID‐19. Our analysis situates these migrant experiences in the interplay between core‐periphery theories and the concept of liquid migration, highlighting how crises accentuate vulnerabilities but can also generate opportunities.

交叉危机对近期欧盟内部流动的影响：以在英国和德国的西班牙人为例

本文对两个相互关联的研究领域做出了贡献：关于欧盟内部移民，特别是南北流动的最新文献；以及交叉危机对流动性影响的学术研究。随着欧盟的扩张，特别是自 2008 年经济大衰退以来，人们对欧盟内部流动性的兴趣有所增加，主要关注点是年轻人和东西方流动。然而，本文基于混合方法研究方法，着眼于近期个人和家庭从西班牙移民到欧洲两个主要目的地英国和德国的情况。它探讨了三个交叉“危机”对（非）流动性策略的影响：从 2008 年以来的移民开始，包括欧盟流动公民权利的侵蚀，最终导致“英国脱欧”，并以 COVID-19 的影响结束。我们的分析将这些移民经历置于核心-边缘理论和流动移民概念之间的相互作用中，强调危机如何加剧脆弱性，但也可以创造机会。
