MORENO, María Verónica. Three Levels of Analysis for Academic Mobility to the United States. Estud. sociol [online]. 2020, vol.38, n.113, pp.497-531. Epub 04-Set-2020. ISSN 2448-6442. https://doi.org/10.24201/es.2020v38n113.1786.
This article identifies reasons, incentives, mechanisms and conditions to migrate to the United States for doing a PhD or postdoctoral fellowship in exact and natural sciences. The research is based on a qualitative strategy using forty semi-structured interviews. The evidence and systematic findings are presented in macro, micro and meso terms. They show the importance of: i) international asymmetry and the national situation; ii) academic incentives, and iii) heterogeneous frameworks of sociability. This article concludes with a typology of movements according to individual’s structure of opportunities.
