- Abstract
The objective of this work is to introduce a phenomenon that has not been proposed in the study of agricultural labor markets and rural employment. This text questions the traditional definition of unemployment and discusses how this definition, which is in use by the National Statistics Institute (INEGI), is applied in formal labor markets, but not in the informal realm. Finally, this work compares the national and rural levels and uses case studies to conclude and reinforce the initial thesis of increased unemployment in rural labor markets. This work highlights gender differences and concludes that rural unemployment affects women more than men, contrary to the phenomenon at national level.
