DURAND, Jorge. Un punto de partida: Los trabajos de Paul S. Taylor sobre la migración mexicana a Estados Unidos. Frontera norte [online]. 2000, vol.12, n.23, pp.51-64. ISSN 2594-0260.

This article offers a glance to the work of Paul S. Taylor, mainly, and Manuel Gamio's, his Mexican counterpart and follower. Both of them are key references for all those interested in the subject of the migration of Mexicans to the United States. Without great theories, but from his own interpretation and analysis of data. Taylor gave a great account of a complex and dynamic social phenomenon; his personal research method is precisely the most surprising aspect of his analysis. This article has made its purpose to recover and revaluate Taylor's contribution to this area.
