PRUNIER, Delphine. Rethinking Returns through Mobility Systems in Central America. The Case of Nicaragua. LiminaR [online]. 2017, vol.15, n.1, pp.177-191. ISSN 2007-8900. https://doi.org/10.2536/liminar.v15i1.502.
This article offers a theoretical reflection on the polysemic concept of return and the relationship of migrants with their home territory. Based on the case study of a Nicaraguan municipality, it analyzes the dynamics of mobility and circulation from the perspective of scattered migration systems, considering the diversity of both the destinations and the duration of movements that occur within and outside Central America. The article seeks to show that the migrants’ understanding and interpretation of their return depend on multiple realities and experiences in Central America. To this end, two concepts are discussed to enhance the debate on the link between circulation, territory and return: “reversibility” and “space resource”.
