Agricultural international disputes: migrant farmers and their right to mobility (Transnational analysis)

Authors

  • Julio U. Morales-López

Abstract

The historical-economic conditions that began during the last
century have led the Mexican rural population to become
international through a migration process towards the USA. These
farmers/migrants occupy spaces outside the agricultural ambit,
without losing their connection to the land, regardless of the
expulsion problem and the low profitability in the countryside;
in spite of this, they acquired other experiences that would make
up the transnational space where their main strategy is directly
related to mobility. In this context, one of many migratory
processes is analyzed anthropologically from a transnational
perspective, exposing the conflict between farmer migrants and
the State, confronting their right to work property, starting with
the use of vehicles of foreign origin, and showing that the main
faculty of the farmer population at issue is the right to mobility
between both Nation-States.
