FRANCO GARCIA, Martha Josefina. Migrant social capital and training. The case of a family from the mixteca poblana. An. antropol. [online]. 2021, vol.55, n.1, pp.73-82. Epub 16-Mayo-2022. ISSN 2448-6221. https://doi.org/10.22201/iia.24486221e.2021.1.72240.
This qualitative study reviews migration as a parental legacy in a migrant family from the Mixtec region of Puebla. We carried out a case study on three generations using in-depth interviews to correlate the training and the migrant social capital that their members possess. We identify the training of these subjects as an important aspect in their life trajectories, since the interest of this family of peasant origin is focused on the schooling their children. Therefore, the second and third generations had the possibility of accessing higher education. Among the findings, we can mention two. First, that the educational institutions in which these subjects were trained impacted their life interests beyond borders, and second, that after the first generation, professional training allowed migration to become a strategic resource for their family and personal projects.
