Broxner, Colette I. Despagne – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2016
The Mexican Nation State has been created upon the Doctrine of Mestizaje which includes one single language, Spanish, and one single identity, the mestizo. This doctrine hides social practices of discrimination (Gómez Izquierdo, 2008). Although multiculturalism in Mexico recognizes diversity and difference, it still perceives them as problems to…

Tucker, Christine M.; Torres-Pereda, Pilar; Minnis, Alexandra M.; Bautista-Arredondo, Sergio A. – Hispanic Journal of Behavioral Sciences, 2013
We explored migration decisions using in-depth, semistructured interviews with male and female youth ages 14 to 24 (n = 47) from two Mexican communities, one with high and one with low U.S. migration density. Half were return migrants and half were nonmigrants with relatives in the United States. Migrant and nonmigrant youth expressed different…

Sanderson, Matthew; Painter, Matthew, II – Rural Sociology, 2011
In the 1990s, Mexican immigration dispersed spatially, leading to the emergence of many "new destinations," in nonmetropolitan areas of the United States. Previous studies constrain the scope of the analysis to the United States, limiting our understanding of how new destinations are formed. We place new destination formation into a…

Rendall, Michael S.; Torr, Berna M. – RAND Corporation, 2007
Second-generation immigrants are typically analyzed under the assumption that, having been born in the United States, they grew up in the United States. We challenge this assumption by investigating the prevalence and patterns of second-generation Mexican-American children's migration to and return from Mexico during childhood, and consider the…

Briggs, Vernon M. Jr. – International Migration Review, 1984
Existing data on illegal immigration in the U.S. is inadequate. The limited availability of macrodata on the size of the annual flows and of the accumulated stock of individuals as well as of microdata on their influence on selected labor markets has been used to forestall policy reform efforts.

Kandel, William; Massey, Douglas S. – Social Forces, 2002
Examines a Mexican "culture of migration," in which U.S. migration becomes an expectation for young people. Among approximately 7,000 secondary students surveyed in Zacatecas (Mexico), adolescents from families involved in U.S. migration were more likely to aspire to live and work in the United States, increasing the likelihood they…

Kissam, Edward; Intili, Jo Ann; Garcia, Anna – 2001
The U.S. agricultural labor market is already, in many respects, a binational one, and it will become increasingly one in which workers who are born in Mexico will follow a variety of worklife trajectories that take them back and forth between both countries. Recognition of this reality has important implications for policy development and program…
