VAZQUEZ ZUNIGA, Iliana. From Dollars to Changarros: Internal and International Migration and Social Reproduction in Southern Puebla, Mexico. Migr. Inter [online]. 2020, vol.11, e2131.  Epub 30-Ago-2021. ISSN 2594-0279.  https://doi.org/10.33679/rmi.v1i1.2131.

This article aims to show how internal and international migration intersect, as well as how such dynamics have influenced strategies of social reproduction in Tulcingo, a township in south Puebla, Mexico. This research presents both a historic dimension ranging from the 1970s until 2018, as well as an ethnographic one, based on 40 interviews conducted in Puebla and on extensive fieldwork done in the Bronx, New York. The investigation points to three moments that guide immigration dynamics within a process that reaches its peak during the 1990s, a phase of accelerated migration, and culminates on a stage of deacceleration after 2001. The article concludes with a reflection on the characteristics of the new era of Mexican migration to the United States and its impact on the immigrant population on both sides of the border.

Palabras llave : Internal and international migration; social reproduction; new era of Mexican migration to United States; Puebla-New York migratory circuit; Puebla- Mexico.
