ATAIDE, Soraya. Unequal insertion of bolivian immigrants in a segmented labor market: A study in municipalities in eastern Salta. Andes [online]. 2016, vol.27, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1668-8090.

The aim of this paper is to contribute to studies on migration and social mobility by analysing the migratory tracks of Bolivian migrants in a horticultural labor market. Our purpose is to explain the formation of a labor market segmented by the Bolivian nationality and ethnicity. Our starting point is the need to discuss the idea of the "Bolivian community" as a homogeneous group and to relativize the socio-economic success of a small group of these immigrants.  We also emphasize the importance of observing their migratory tracks and networks, crossed by different inequalities and anchored in different spatio - temporal contexts. Two municipalities of eastern Salta, Apolinario Saravia and Gral. Pizarro, constitute our empirical references. There, a horticultural production of fresh produce is being developed, oriented to the domestic market, with a strong presence of workers and producers of Bolivian origin for at least five decades in different spatio - temporal, national, regional and local contexts. We use a longitudinal qualitative methodological strategy and our methodological device and also unit of analysis is the "migratory track"..
