Especially, I will focus on their motivations to work in foreign country as domestic worker. Through ethnographic dates and the analysis of their narratives, I will present the imaginaries they have as a representation of their subjectivities and have a bearing on the migration and labor practices of young Guatemalan worker. There are three imaginaries that I analyze: the urban life, family and about their future, which explain the particular character of this border dynamics what I will define as micro-social and temporary mobility. My objective is to evidence that migratory and labor dynamic of female young is not economic phenomenon, but is the social process in which they seek their particular forms to be young and to make youngness. En este trabajo, se rescatan las subjetividades de las trabajadoras jóvenes guatemaltecas que se desempeñan en el sector doméstico del Soconusco, Chiapas, México. El enfoque está en sus motivaciones para salir de su país con el propósito de trabajar en el sector doméstico. Mediante datos etnográficos y análisis de las narrativas recopiladas, se describen sus imaginarios y la manera en que inciden en sus prácticas migratorias y laborales. Se analizan tres imaginarios: el de la vida urbana, de familia y sobre su futuro que posibilitan explicar las características particulares de esta dinámica fronteriza, la cual definimos como movilidad micro-social y temporal. El objetivo es poner en evidencia que las dinámicas migratoria y laboral de las jóvenes no es un fenómeno meramente económico, sino que es el proceso social en el que ellas buscan su forma particular de ser y hacerse jóvenes. 2019-12-20 2021-06-03T03:39:23Z 2021-06-03T03:39:23Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819 10.21670/ref.1921042 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6931 spa eng https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819/1661 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819/1672 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819/1673 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819/1674 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819/1716 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819/1717 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819/1718 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/819/1719 Derechos de autor 2019 Estudios Fronterizos application/pdf text/xml text/html application/epub+zip text/html text/xml application/pdf application/epub+zip Soconusco, Chiapas Soconusco, Chiapas Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 20 (2019) Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 20 (2019) 2395-9134 0187-6961
