Description
Abandoning Their Beloved Land is a new history of the Bracero Program, a bilateral initiative that allowed Mexican men to work in the US as seasonal contract farmworkers (braceros) between 1942 and 1964. This book uses national, regional, and local Mexican archival collections to explore the political factors that shaped the administration of the bracero selection process in Mexico, as well as individual decisions to migrate as braceros.
