MENDOZA PEREZ, Cristóbal. The border space in the articulation of transnational social spaces: theoretical reflection and empirical analysis. Pap. poblac [online]. 2007, vol.13, n.53, pp.103-135. ISSN 2448-7147.
The debate on "place and space" is to be explored in the literature of migrations. From a traditional perspective, international migrations are understood in bipolar terms, from a point of departure and a second of arrival, and through frameworks of adaptation/integration/ assimilation. The transnational approach for the study of migration which constitutes a challenge for rigid traditional perspectives does not take into account practically any geographical reference. According to this view, migrations occur within social and cultural spaces without a territorial basis. In this context, this article explores the role of the border space (i.e. the Mexico northern border cities) in the construction of transnational social spaces, from the analysis of EMIF (Survey on Migration to the Northern Border).
