Abstract

Why does social position of skilled Mexican women, who migrate to the United States, decrease? Which is the relationship between integration into the labor market and social mobility? Based on these research questions, we study the mechanisms underlying the inclusion of skilled Mexican women in a stratified social and labor system. To achieve this purpose, we consider appropriate linking gender analysis to variables such as social class and national origin. The result is the visibility of dynamics that contributes to the formation of new hierarchical structures, where migrant women occupy a specific social and labor space.
