CORONA-JIMENEZ, Miguel Ángel. The intricate process of labor reinsertion of returning migrants in the globalized periphery. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.57, pp.455-486. ISSN 2448-6183.  https://doi.org/10.22136/est20181180.

This paper presents reinsertion labor conditions of returning migrants in the “prosper” municipality of Cuautlancingo, Puebla, where the multinational automobile industry is located and connected with the global economy. The methodological approach is based on a survey, a typology, an integral concept of labor reinsertion, and the analysis of the use of remittances and savings of the returning migrants. The results confirm that the labor reinsertion process has been difficult and different to men and women. Moreover, this process has not been the same if the migrants returned willingly or unwillingly, or without achieving their goals, particularly in the context of a globalized periphery.
