Resumen

VASQUEZ MONTANO, Rosario Margarita  y  ROMERO GIL, Juan Manuel. From miners to agricultural settlers. The experience of miners from Pilares, on the coast of Hermosillo, 1949-1980.Traducido porLuis Cejudo Espinoza. Frontera norte [online]. 2021, vol.33, e2138.  Epub 25-Oct-2021. ISSN 2594-0260.  https://doi.org/10.33679/rfn.v1i1.2138.

The article analyzes the change and adaptation process of miners who became agricultural settlers on the coast of Hermosillo. All of them had been unemployed because of the closure of the copper mine in Pilares, Sonora, in 1949. The methodological perspective applied instruments of social and cultural history with concepts of memory studies. It is possible to identify a fractured identity through the broken projections for the future, forcing settlers to re-elaborate their life stories. The study involved work with orality, which resulted in some limitations that had to be solved with contrast of documentary and historiographic sources. The visibility of a community with a strong presence in the social imagination of Sonora defined the originality of the study, concluding further that there is a pilgrim cultural identity that was formed outside the mining space but with symbolic elements of it.
