El trabajo infantil asalariado en los cultivos de exportación en el valle de Mexicali, forma parte de los procesos macroeconómicos ligados a las políticas de libre comercio y a la globalización de la economía, y es estudiado como producto del deterioro de las condiciones de vida y de trabajo de las familias campesinas, en un mercado laboral necesitado de fuerza de trabajo barata, en este punto concreto, del mercado mundial. Aunque este trabajo se centra en el valle de Mexicali, presentamos algunos datos del valle de San Quintín, centro agrícola de Baja California donde se presenta el trabajo infantil. Analizaremos el rol del trabajo infantil en la economía, las condiciones en que se desarrolla y las consecuencias que les acarrea, en su futuro. También revisaremos el marco jurídico nacional e internacional sobre el trabajo de menores y las propuestas posibles para erradicarlo, pues el trabajo infantil, reconocido ya como reproductor de pobreza, repercute no sólo en los destinos personales de esta niñez, sino en el destino regional mismo y el de México como nación.  Universidad Autónoma de Baja California 2002-01-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Field research, empirical data, conducting surveys and interviews with children and child laborers, parents of child laborers, rural teachers and people of the region, in a nonrandom sample Investigación de campo, datos empíricos, aplicación de encuestas y entrevistas a niñas y niños jornaleros, a padres de niños trabajadores, maestros rurales y gente de la región, en una muestra no probabilística application/pdf text/html https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/274 10.21670/ref.2002.05.a04 Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 3 No. 5 (2002); 93-119 Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 3 Núm. 5 (2002); 93-119 2395-9134 0187-6961 spa https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/274/428 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/274/810 Derechos de autor 2014 Estudios Fronterizos Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/
