Item type:Publication, Transnational families in crisis context: Mobility and (non)family arrangements of Venezuelans in Peru(Universidad Pontificia Comillas de Madrid, 2024-01-01)Since 2016, Latin America has witnessed a massive migratory phenomenon of Venezuelans leaving their homeland to survive the crisis. These migrations, mostly individual, lead to the creation of transnational families characterized by a system of solidarity across the distance between the destination country and Venezuela. This article explores the formation, arrangements, and modes of organization of these families. Based on retrospective interviews with 51 Venezuelan migrants of both sexes settled in Peru, it analyses the various forms of transnational family and the limits in observing this concept. In addition to money transfers and communication between migrants and non-migrants, the research highlights two configurations of this type of family, in relation to the urgency of addressing food security concerns and the aspirations of other family members within this space of regional mobility. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Woman traders and cross-border circuits: Articulations between care and mobility on the borders of Peru, Bolivia and Chile(Universidad Autonoma de Baja California, 2024-01-01)Cross-border trade is predominantly conducted by women, and involves the movement and articulation of extensive networks for the circulation (formal or not) of products. Engaging with the perspectives of mobility and gender in border studies, this article examines the configuration of cross-border circuits of women traders. The article demonstrates how commercial activities and caregiving are intertwined in these circuits and discusses this overlap through four socio-spatial arrangements: home, places of sale, border crossing and supply locations. The research is based in two Peruvian cities with border conditions—Tacna (bordering Chile) and Puno (bordering Bolivia)—and involved 62 semi-structured interviews with women engaged in various commercial activities in 2022-2023, primarily second-hand clothing and groceries. These activities are part of a global chain of merchandise circulation that closely links the three countries (Bolivia, Chile, and Peru). - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Siblings negotiations in the transnational care of non-migrant parents in Peru(El Colegio de la Frontera Norte, 2024-01-01)Based on fourteen in-depth interviews with Peruvian migrants living in Switzerland, the article analyzes the family arrangements between migrant and non-migrant siblings on behalf of their parents living in Peru. The findings highlight that decision-making is affected by power relations, where gender and economic resources play a decisive role. Sibling negotiations are also related to the capacity to fulfil the filial duty of taking care and feeling recognized as the son or daughter who takes care of the parents, just as the parents did when the siblings were children. While the sample covers a group of migrants settled in Switzerland who achieved important levels of social, cultural, and labor integration, the results provide insights on transnational care issues that are applicable to other South-North migration contexts. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Demographic Transition and Evolution of the Morphology of Families in Peru(Grupo Editor Yocavil, 2023-01-01)This article analyses the evolution of the morphology of families in Peru in the different stages of the demographic transition, in a comparative approach between urban and rural areas. To do so, it takes as indicators the composition, size and headship of households, from the population censuses from 1972 to 2017, and from the Household Surveys from 2000 to 2020. The results show a diversification of the nuclear model, an increase in single-person and female-headed households, and a decrease in the size of households, with differences within both areas of residence.
