About this book

In this book we present an analysis of the various transformation processes that have been taking place in the international migratory dynamic of Mexicans as a consequence of the 2008 international economic crisis and the implementation of an increasingly hardened American migratory policy. From a methodology that triangulates qualitative and quantitative tools, the main findings of this work indicate that the international migration of Mexicans is moving to a new migratory phase, here called the era of “contraction and disengagement”, that is characterized by the configuration of multiple changes with repercussions on the functioning of international migration as a socioeconomic strategy at the levels of family and migrant communities.

The Autonomous University of the State of Mexico (UAEMex)

On March 3rd, 1828, lectures started in the Literary Institute of the State of Mexico, in the old town of Tlapan (Mexico City). The institute was relocated to the city of Toluca in 1833 to the building know as El Beaterio [a place where pious mendicant religious women used to live; from beata, a pious woman], which nowadays is still the administrative seat of the Autonomous University of the State of Mexico.

Over its 185 years of history, the Highest Educational Institution in the State of Mexico has consolidated as one of the best Institutions of Higher Education in Mexico.

The Autonomous University of the State of Mexico is committed to a mission that dates back to its origins and that renews in the essential, with no detriment to its historic traditions; always attending to their validity, it evolves and transforms to the extent knowledge and societies turn the future into present.

Ever since it was founded, it generates, studies, preserves, transmits and expands universal knowledge, being at all times and under any circumstance at the service of society. It embraces the commitment to train ethical people, proactively involved in peace building, the defense of the best ways for human existence and coexistence, which promote sustainable development, as well as universal, humanist, national, free, fair and democratic awareness.

In our mandate of teaching upper-intermediate and higher education, vital are humanist, scientific and technological research, cultural dissemination and outreach actions associated to the advancement of humanism, science and technology, and art and every manifestation of culture, which in function of the current ethic and moral crisis in the globalized world will be enriched with the impetus of knowledge with values and social responsibility, indispensable principles of the duties of our institution and university community.
