Spanish term

a la que se aplica una perspectiva cicatera

Spanish to English Social Sciences Government / Politics
Este texto supone una regulación intensiva de los controles fronterizos, al tiempo que actúa también sobre los mecanismos de control interno de la inmigración, tales como la política de contingentes -que, hasta entonces, era más un procedimiento de regularización encubierta que un reclutamiento de trabajadores en los países de origen-, o la concesión de permisos de estancia y residencia, a la que se aplica una perspectiva cicatera.

such as a quota policy -- at that time, more an undercover regularization than a recruitment of workers from the countries of origin -- or granting of residency and shot-term-stay permits, which were very tightly controlled.???

which were granted applying very restrictive criteria

"Perspectiva cicatera" speaks of stinginess, very limiting point of view
Peer comment(s):

agree James A. Walsh : Yes, I think this is perfect. Good call :) Perhaps "...under very restrictive (or strict) criteria"
