    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.

    Different Trajectories from a Common Crisis: Survival Migrations and Resilience of Venezuelan Adolescents to Peru
    (SAGE Publishing, 2023-11-07)
    This article examines the biography of adolescents who emigrated from Venezuela with family members due to economic hardship. It aims to highlight how a common crisis produces a variety of experiences, but that resilience is a central aspect of all life courses. It analyzes the stages of the adolescents’ migratory trajectory: their departure, journey, and settlement in Peru. The results show that the crisis homogenises the living conditions and produces a heterogeneity of migration experiences in which resilience is ever-present.

    Reconfigurations of the transition to adulthood amongst first-generation students in contexts of crisis: the Peruvian experience
    (Taylor & Francis, 2025-01-01)
    This article examines how first-generation students (FGS) in Peru experience the transition to adulthood within the university context. Through a biographical approach based on 60 interviews with scholarship recipients across three regions of the country (Coast, Highlands and Amazon), the study analyses the particular configuration of life stages that emerges when the university experience unfolds in contexts of precarity. The findings reveal that, far from representing a period of social moratorium, university constitutes for FGS an 'intermediate age' characterised by constant tension between aspirations for autonomy and family responsibilities. The COVID-19 pandemic has made these tensions more visible and acute, evidencing both specific vulnerabilities and notable adaptive capacities. The analysis also shows how gender structures these experiences: while women face greater demands for family care, men experience more pressure to contribute economically. These findings invite us to rethink traditional conceptions of youth and adulthood, revealing how life transitions are reconfigured in contexts where the pursuit of social mobility through higher education coexists with persistent inequalities.
