BOLIVIAN LABOR IMMIGRANTS’ EXPERIENCES IN ARGENTINA EDITED

BY

 CYNTHIA PIZARRO

“This timely collection on Bolivian labor migration to Argentina fills a void in migration studies. There is so little in English on labor migrations in the Southern Cone of South America or on South-South migrations more generally. While Peru, Bolivia and Paraguay have long sent migrants to Argentina, the Bolivian migration has been the longest lived and most persistent, a feature that this book traces in rural and urban Bolivian settlements in Argentina since the nineteenth century through many vivid ethnographic descriptions. The volume also provides an excellent account of the difficulties faced by Bolivian migrants crossing the border into Argentina, despite the ideal of free movement legislated by that state, and the barriers of social class, ethnicity and gender that continue to hamper their lives in the new country. While Bolivians are included in the labor market, they are excluded from welfare and other benefits of citizenship. Another gem this book offers is a comparative framework to other labor migrations: Bolivians in Spain, and Tajiks in Russia.” — Judith Freidenberg, University of Maryland, College Park ABOUT THE BOOK Bolivian Labor Immigrants' Experiences in Argentina examines key issues regarding the structural factors that pattern the integration of Bolivian immigrants in labor markets segmented by inequalities based on class, gender, ethnicity/race, nationality, and migratory and legal status. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Cynthia Pizarro is a professor at the University of Buenos Aires and researcher at the National Council of Scientific and Technological Research (CONICET).
