SALVATORI, Sara  e  TERRON-CARO, Teresa. The Invisible Migration of Skilled Mexican Women. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.2, e54443.  Epub 01-Jun-2019. ISSN 1806-9584.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2019v27n254443.

The article analyzes, from a perspective based on the analysis of gender and social class, the mechanisms that determine the invisibilization of skilled Mexican women in the migratory flows to the United States. For this, we use the qualitative data we have collected during the field work carried out in Monterrey (Mexico) and Houston (United States) between 2008 and 2011 and in 2016. The results of the research point to the coexistence of invisibilities that if they relate, on the one hand, to the over-representation of men in migratory flows, on the other they are linked to the declassification experienced by qualified women in the settlement society. In this way, the migratory strategies evidenced from the qualitative analysis acquire the character of resistance mechanisms to the challenges imposed on women by the macrosystem.
