LERMA RODRIGUEZ, Enriqueta. "Guatemalan-Mexican-Americans" in Chiapas: Differentiated Citizenship Status Families and their Multi-Territoriality. Migr. Inter [online]. 2016, vol.8, n.3, pp.95-124. ISSN 2594-0279.

This article addresses migration impact on the construction of differentiated citizenship status among Guatemalan ex-refugees families in Chiapas, who migrated to the USA, returned to Guatemala, and finally moved back to Mexico. It discusses the extent to which differentiated citizenship status influences notions of space and the construction of multiple territorialities. Moreover, it draws upon the concept of 'deictic locality' to situate the place of reference relevant to this spatial mobility. The research was conducted through unstructured interviews at a town composed by former refugees in the municipality of Trinitaria at the Southern Mexico border.

Palabras llave : refugee; citizenship; multi-territoriality; place; transnational family.
