MARQUEZ COVARRUBIAS, Humberto. Mexico in tenterhooks: labors sovereignty dismantling and remittances dependency. Pap. poblac [online]. 2008, vol.14, n.58, pp.73-95. ISSN 2448-7147.
Mexican migrants directly contribute to the development of the United States, doing so in precarious working conditions and social exclusion; as a paradox these migrants are responsible for detonating the development in their places of origin, through a diversified use of the remittances in the spheres of consumption, production and public works. This article analyses the complex relation between underdevelopment and labor force export, bringing together two key processes: the dismantling of labors sovereignty and the dependency on remittances. By granting explanatory preeminence to the complex problematic of development over the migratory dynamic, we argue that Mexico consolidates itself as a working reservoir for the United States, deepening the economic exclusion, the depopulation and putting a halt on development alternatives.
