During the past three decades there have been many studies of transnational migration. Most of the scholarship has focused on one side of the border, one area of labor incorporation, one generation of migrants, and one gender. In this path-breaking book, Manuel Barajas presents the first cross-national, comparative study to examine a Mexican-origin community’s experience with international migration and transnationalism. He presents an extended case study of the Xaripu community, with home bases in both Xaripu, Michoacán, and Stockton, California, and elaborates how various forms of colonialism, institutional biases, and emergent forms of domination have shaped Xaripu labor migration, community formation, and family experiences across the Mexican/U.S. border for over a century.Of special interest are Barajas’s formal and informal interviews within the community, his examination of oral histories, and his participant observation in several locations. Barajas asks, What historical events have shaped the Xaripus’ migration experiences? How have Xaripus been incorporated into the U.S. labor market? How have national inequalities affected their ability to form a community across borders? And how have migration, settlement, and employment experiences affected the family, especially gender relationships, on both sides of the border?

Les femmes immigrées vieillissent en silence. Un exil sans retour pour certaines, installées dans un provisoire permanent, une rupture définitive avec la terre natale pour d'autres. Effacées du paysage, des mémoires, les femmes interviewées dans ce film ont vécu plusieurs vies. Malgré le poids des traditions, des souffrances insurmontables, elles ont conduit leurs filles sur le chemin de l'école, de l'émancipation. “Un film généreux, inspiré." (www.histoire-immigration.fr).
Immigrant women age in silence. An exile without return for some, installed in a permanent provisional, a final break with the native land for others. Erased from the landscape, from memories, the women interviewed in this film lived several lives. Despite the weight of traditions, of insurmountable suffering, they led their daughters on their way to school, to emancipation. “A generous, inspired film." (www.histoire-immigration.fr.
