The Routledge History of Modern Latin American Migration
Persistent rurality in Mexico and 'the right to stay home
This study compares Mexico's rural population and cross-border out-migration trends between 2000 and 2010 censuses. In spite of widespread predictions of post-NAFTA depopulation, the size of Mexico's rural population has remained steady. This study documents the significant absolute size and geographic concentration of Mexico's persistent rural population as well as the decreasing rate of outmigration to the United States. Mexico experienced two …
Local context and labour-community immigrant rights coalitions: A comparison of San Francisco, Chicago, and Houston
The historic immigrant mobilisations of 2006 have reinvigorated public debates about immigration in the United States and the role of the labour movement in advancing immigrant rights. Prior research has highlighted why the U.S. labour movement officially declared solidarity with immigrant workers in 2000, but how has this new commitment played out on the ground? Drawing on rich qualitative data on immigrant-focused coalition building in San Fran…
Mexican Hometown Associations in Chicagoacán: From Local to Transnational Civic Engagement
Chicago is home to the second-largest Mexican immigrant population in the United States, yet the activities of this community have gone relatively unexamined by both the media and academia. In this groundbreaking new book, Xóchitl Bada takes us inside one of the most vital parts of Chicago’s Mexican immigrant community—its many hometown associations. Hometown associations (HTAs) consist of immigrants from the same town in Mexico and often begin q…

Collective Remittances and Development in Rural Mexico: A View from Chicago's Mexican Hometown Associations
This paper addresses the changing agendas of US‐based hometown associations (HTAs) in rural Mexico and the impact that these changes have on local government decisions to finance community development. The evidence that is offered in this paper confirms that local governments at the subnational state, municipal, and village levels are interested in maintaining the economic attachments of emigrant populations. These governments have created innova…
A New Approach to Migrant Labor Rights Enforcement: The Crisis of Undocumented Worker Abuse and Mexican Consular Advocacy in the United States
This paper examines the genesis and evolution of consular efforts to enforce the workplace rights of immigrant workers in the United States. We draw on a survey of 52 Mexican consulates in the United States, in-depth interviews with the initial cohort of 15 consular participants in the Semana de Derechos Laborales/Labor Rights Week, and several key informants who helped coordinate these efforts in the community. Our findings confirm a shift from …
From national to topophilic attachments: Continuities and changes in Chicago's Mexican migrant organizations
Mexican Migrants: The Attractions and Realities of the United States
By and large, the most recent economic recession significantly reduced employment opportunities for thousands of Mexican migrants settled in the United States, prompting many to return to their homeland in the midst of heightened anti-immigrant rhetoric and increased immigration raids at the U.S. workplace. This in turn decreased remittances from Mexican migrants abroad.' Yet many Mexican migrants (both documented and undocumented) decided to wea…
