Transnational social cohesion and migration in Guanajuato. A perspective in construction from the South

How do migrant groups affect social cohesion, community values and the development of their communities of origin?

description How do migrant groups affect social cohesion, community values and the development of their communities of origin? To answer these questions, an exploratory survey was applied to 658 people, 21% of whom were returned migrants and/or their families. The objective was to identify the resources mobilized by migrants during their migratory trajectory based on the five dimensions that, according to Jane Jenson compose social cohesion. This work had two findings: migrant groups have sustained their community values and commitments in a structure of social linkages supported by family and friendship relationships, as well as a low recognition of national and subnational political institutions. Evidence also suggests that some elements of community participation that constitute this linkage structure are present simultaneously in multiple geographic spaces. This would reinforce a sense of multiple belonging and create a notion of transnational social cohesion and a research agenda to verify it.

Para responder estas preguntas se aplicó una encuesta exploratoria a 658 personas, 21% de las cuales eran personas migrantes retornadas y/o sus familias. El objetivo fue identificar los recursos movilizados por los migrantes durante su trayectoria migratoria con base en las cinco dimensiones que según Jane Jenson componen la cohesión social. Este trabajo tuvo dos hallazgos: los grupos migrantes han sostenido sus valores y compromisos comunitarios sobre una estructura de vínculos sociales apoyada en relaciones familiares y de amistad, así como en un bajo reconocimiento a las instituciones políticas nacionales y subnacionales. La evidencia sugiere, además, que algunos elementos de participación comunitaria que constituyen esta estructura de vínculos se manifiestan de manera simultánea en espacios geográficos múltiples. Esto reforzaría un sentido de pertenencias múltiples y crearía una noción de cohesión social transnacional y una agenda de investigación que lo verifique.   Universidad Autónoma de Baja California 2020-10-21 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/epub+zip text/html text/xml application/pdf text/xml text/html application/epub+zip application/pdf https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867 10.21670/ref.2017059 Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 21 (2020) Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 21 (2020) 2395-9134 0187-6961 spa eng https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867/1827 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867/1828 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867/1829 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867/1830 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867/1859 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867/1860 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867/1861 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/867/1862 Guanajuato, Mexico. 2016 Guanajuato, México. 2016 Derechos de autor 2020 Estudios Fronterizos https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/
