Los datos generados por un levantamiento propio aplicado en cuatro localidades urbanas del país sirvieron como base para elaborar el presente trabajo, donde se sugiere que el autoempleo es un mecanismo útil para fomentar el arraigo de la población en su comunidad de origen; asimismo se muestra que el autoempleo en el sector manufacturero, particularmente el que requiere inversión en capital físico, es capaz de contrarrestar el poder de las redes sociales para expulsar a la población. La estimación econométrica se hace con variables instrumentales y en dos etapas, para así tomar en cuenta el problema de endogeneidad que puede generar la posible relación de dos vías entre la migración y el autoempleo. Los resultados sugieren que el apoyo gubernamental en el financiamiento de los micronegocios puede contribuir a disminuir el flujo migratorio de México hacia Estados Unidos. AbstractThe data yielded by a survey undertaken in four urban localities in Mexico served as the basis for this article, which suggests that self-employment is a useful mechanism for encouraging the population to remain in its community of origin. It also shows that self-employment in the manufacturing sector, particularly the kind requiring investment in physical capital, is able to counteract the power of social networks to expel the population. The econometric estimate is carried out using instrumental variables and in two stages, to take into account the problem of endogeny that may be caused by the possible two-way link between migration and self-employment. The results suggest that government support to finance micro-businesses may help stem the migratory flow to the United States
