PEREZ GANAN, María del Rocío  y  PESANTEZ CALLE, Blanca Nelcila. The Impact of Migration on the Educational Expectations and Aspirations and the Social Mobility of Sigseño Youth. Migr. Inter [online]. 2017, vol.9, n.2, pp.57-84. ISSN 2594-0279.  https://doi.org/10.17428/rmi.v9i33.242.

This article analyzes whether the discourses generated in the communication and ma terial exchange within transnational households impact the aspirational narrative and imaginary regarding the fulfillment of the educational and professional expectations for the sons and daughters of migrants from the district of Sígsig, Ecuador. A qualitative study demonstrates that international migration does not have a negative influence on educational aspirations and may have a positive influence on the imaginary regarding expectation fulfillment given the remittances they are receiving.

Palabras llave : migration; transnational family; educational aspirations; educational expectations; Ecuador.
