Causes, consequences, effects and impact of the migrations in Latin America

This work approaches Latin American migrations produced in the framework of globalization. The author identifies those which take place in Latin America toward developed countries as part of the worldwide tendency with restrictive character in the destination countries, determined by governments which try to avoid undesired migratory flows into their territories. This restrictive situation tends to select migrants according to the immediate necessities of a country to cover job positions, hence attracting to their societies scientists, technologists and specialists, who they lack, to meet their own demands; a migratory phenomenon called brain drain. However, the author also warns on a new re-colonization project which will bring new migratory flows to Latin America because of its water and food supplies.
