André Quesnel et al., « Mobilité, absence de longue durée et relations intergénérationnelles en milieu rural (état du Veracruz, Mexique) », Cahiers des Amériques latines, ID : 10.4000/cal.7534
Within the framework of Alena, Mexico engaged major institutional and economic reforms: reform of the constitution, the restructuring of the economic spaces, freeing migratory streams, in particular young countrymen, mainly steered to the north of the country and United States. These distant destinations suppose a new organization of families and new between generations reports because of the prolonged absence of the migrants. Families pass then of a home economics centred on the agricultural production to a new organization, which remains however strongly determined by the agrarian status of the rural families. The objective of this article is to propose a first analysis of the long-term absence of the youngest individuals in a zone of the South of the state of Veracruz (Mexico), and the new generation’s relations which are set up in the migrant families. It is so a question of proposing a reading of the territorial reorganization of the Mexican rural spaces and their future under the impact of the international migration.
