Keywords:

The following work aims to reflect on that experience of return that some migrants from Chiapas complete after making the journey to the so-called American dream. To develop this research, an approach was made to the rural youth of Las Margaritas, Chiapas, which for several decades has been incorporated into the international labor market. For this, we distinguish the discursive elements that make them recognize and create their own identity about themselves, as well as find out what is the influence that these mechanisms exert when meditating the return to the place of origin. Likewise, an approach is made to the interpretation of their stories to know the vision of the youth regarding the return, as well as the new patterns, styles and youthful practices that are created when returning.
