The Migration of Skilled Women from Monterrey to Houston: The Case of Bilingual Mexican Teachers
Salvatori, Sara; Terrón-Caro, Teresa
Journal of Latinos and Education, v22 n1 p70-82 2023
This article examines the integration of skilled Mexican female workers in the Monterrey labor market, and the relationship with the genesis of migratory flows toward the city of Houston. Following this line of investigation, the feminization of Mexican migration toward the US is considered, in part, to be the result of unfavorable conditions affecting qualified women professionals in their country of origin, who find an employment niche in the basic schooling system of Texas. However, the findings obtained in the fieldwork conducted beg the question of whether this type of migration can truly be defined as skilled.
