SORDO, Juan  y  DONCEL DE LA COLINA, Juan Antonio. Corporate expatriates and foreign communities in Monterrey: The Spanish and Japanese cases. Iztapalapa. Rev. cienc. soc. humanid.

Through a qualitative approach, based on in-depth interviews and participant observations, we present a comparative analysis of how the occupational conditions and the support provided by Japanese and Spanish transnational corporations that transfer personnel from their countries of origin, influences the cohesion and community dynamics of nationals living in an urban center such as Monterrey. First, we contextualize, socially, empirically and theoretically, our research problem. Then, a detailed methodological description is offered. Finally, we present our results in four sections. These results indicated that modalities and intensities of the company support, depending on the nationality of the expatriates in question, shape up highly contrasting migrant communities dynamics.
