Book Description
Coun- ties and in the Mexican municipios along the border, the most rapid increase in population in the early 1990s was among the 0 4 age group. [...] The low set is in marked contrast to the high series as the intent was to document the growth potential of natural increase in the absence of any migra- tion. [...] Age Composition in 2020 for the High Series Figure 12 presents the population pyramids for the border counties and municipios summed to national totals for 2020 under the The U. [...] The age distribution of the Mexican side of the border would continue to host a consider- ably younger population than the U. [...] Therefore, even a sweeping and substan- tial reduction in migration would not eliminate the growth prospects for the future as the border population would almost double in the next 25 years from the beginning of the projection.

Labor Market Issues along the U.S.-Mexico Border
Author: Marie T. Mora
Publisher: University of Arizona Press
ISBN: 0816548579
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Five million workers are employed in a variety of settings along the U.S.–Mexico border, yet labor market outcomes on each side often differ. U.S. workers tend to have low earnings and high unemployment compared with the rest of the country, while workers on the Mexican side of the border are often more prosperous than those in the interior. This book sheds new light on these socioeconomic differentials, along with other labor market issues affecting both sides of the border. The contributors take up issues that dominate the current discourse— migration, trade, gender, education, earnings, and employment. They analyze labor conditions and their relationship to immigration, and also provide insight into income levels and population concentrations, the relative prosperity of Mexico’s border region, and NAFTA’s impact on trade and living conditions. Drawing on demographic, economic, and labor data, the chapters treat topics ranging from historical context to directions for future research. They cover the importance of trade to both the United States and Mexico, salary differentials, the determinants of wages among Mexican immigrant women on the U.S. side, and the net effect of Mexican migration on the public coffers in U.S. border states. The book’s concluding policy prescriptions are geared toward improving conditions on the U.S. side without dampening the success of workers in Mexico. Written to be equally accessible to social scientists, policy makers, and concerned citizens, this book deals with issues often overlooked in national policy discussions and can help readers better understand real-life conditions along the border. It dispels misconceptions regarding labor interdependence between the two countries while offering policy recommendations useful for improving the economic and social well-being of border residents.

The Politics, Economics, and Culture of Mexican-US Migration
Author: E. Ashbee
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230609910
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 323
Book Description
Images and accounts of the Mexican - US migration process and the border region abound. Representations of border crossers, plans for the construction of a security fence, the shifting economic relationship between the US and its southern neighbors, and the changing character of the Rio Grande area have played a pivotal role in shaping contemporary political discourse. The Politics, Economics, and Culture of Mexican-US Migration, which has attracted contributors from four different countries, offers multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary evaluations of these developments. It also considers the impact of migration in both the US and Mexico. Some of the contributions are case-studies, while others have a broad 'survey' character. All place the current debate about migration and the changing nature of the north American continent within its wider context in a way that is of relevance and interest to both the specialist and the more general reader.

Social Justice in the U.S.-Mexico Border Region
Author: Mark Lusk
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9789400793705
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The U.S.-Mexico Border Region is among the poorest geographical areas in the United States. The region has been long characterized by dual development, poor infrastructure, weak schools, health disparities and low-wage employment. More recently, the region has been affected by the violence associated with a drug and crime war in Mexico. The premise of this book is that the U.S.-Mexico Border Region is subject to systematic oppression and that the so-called social pathologies that we see in the region are by-products of social and economic injustice in the form of labor exploitation, environmental racism, immigration militarism, institutional sexism and discrimination, health inequities, a political economy based on low-wage labor, and the globalization of labor and capital. The chapters address a variety of examples of injustice in the areas of environment, health disparity, migration unemployment, citizenship, women and gender violence, mental health, and drug violence. The book proposes a pathway to development.
