En los años recientes, el estado de Chiapas se ha convertido, por primera vez en su historia, en una entidadexpulsora de mano de obra hacia la frontera nortey Estados Unidos. En este marco, el artículo analizaalgunas características que exhibe la economíachiapaneca a partir de la década de 1980, su dependenciacreciente de las transferencias federales y ladificultad para convertir ese masivo envío de dineroen una mejoría socio-económica para sus habitantes.Con la crisis del campo se determinó la ruptura de unequilibrio frágil, en el que el sector primario reteníala mano de obra local en actividades que asegurabaningresos suficientes para satisfacer las necesidadesbásicas de las familias (principalmente la producciónde maíz y café). Esta crisis, sumada a la devastacióncausada por el huracán Mitch en 1998, se convirtióen el detonador del éxodomigratorio que se hizo visible a finales del decenio de 1990.... view less

With the agricultural crisis came the rupture of a fragile balance in which the primary sector withheld the local skilled labor in activities that would assure enough income to satisfy the basic needs of families, most of all in the production of corn and coffee. This crisis, added to the destruction caused by the hurricane Mitch in 1986, was the detonator of the migration exodus that was visible at the end of the 1990's.... view less
