- Abstract
Becoming an international migrant in the context of an indigenous community in Chiapas creates tension with the normative systems that on behalf of the common good demand the participation of its members. Refusal to participate in civil duties can be accepted through the migrant paying a fine. This explains the existence of a community body regulating migration. In his or her return, the migrant and family engage in a complicated negotiation of the terms of reintegration. Besides, returning migrants are limited as far as the initiatives they may set forth. All the above occurs in communities in which community membership entails a bond of cultural identification.
