ALANIS ENCISO, Fernando Saúl. Manuel Gamio’s Ideas and Reflections on Return Migrants (1925-1930). Migr. Inter [online]. 2019, vol.10, e2169.  Epub 01-Jan-2019. ISSN 2594-0279.  https://doi.org/10.33679/rmi.v1i1.2169.

The purpose of the present study was to analyze the central ideas developed by Manuel Gamio about return migrants in a project conducted by the Mexican scholar in 1925 and in his classic work, published in 1930. These views are the first instances of academic reflection concerning return migrants in Mexico, the influence of American society on this social group, and the social and economic consequences of their return to Mexico.
