Autonomía y Migración: los obreros forestales del nordeste de Misiones (Argentina)

Resumen

The present article deals with the forestall workers of Misiones (northeast Argentina) that move towards the planted forests of Eucalyptuses, located in the provinces of Corrientes and Entre Ríos. The alternation between selling labour force and working for themselves in our land defines the migrant’s social condition.We analyse this cyclic migration circuit in terms of labour market segmentation. The search of autonomy represents a central value for labour selection alternatives. From the anthropological point of view we describes the social organization forms (domestic cycle phase, social networks) and cultural conceptions that underlying segmentation.
