Regional labor mobility and migrations to the United States have boosted the circulation not only of people, but also of goods, information, money, objects, narratives and expectations, leaving their mark on the territory, in agricultural work and in the kind of relationship with the land in the region of Totonacapan, Veracruz. We consider that it has accelerated change and redefinition of local socio-cultural processes, as well as material and symbolic values of peasants. In this work, carried out in the municipal capital of Coyutla, Veracruz, we approach the migratory dynamics, the transformations of rural contexts and the daily life of people who leave and return, just as of those who stay. This research is based on information obtained in field work, on-site trecks, interviews, and informal talks with returning migrants and their families, in Coyutla in 2012.

Palabras llave : international migration; indigenous migration; sociocultural process; Coyutla; Veracruz.
