Abstract
<p>A partir de 1990 la migración hacia los Estados Unidos de los hidalguenses se intensificó, posicionándose entonces como un fenómeno social emergente. En respuesta al mismo, las autoridades del estado de Hidalgo, en el año 1999, hicieron esfuerzos de intervención. El objetivo de este documento es describir los antecedentes de las políticas públicas desarrolladas por el gobierno de Hidalgo en atención a sus migrantes en Estados Unidos, esto a través de una metodología de análisis histórico y cualitativo para investigar tres períodos gubernamentales de gestión y las diversas iniciativas desarrolladas por el gobierno estatal.</p>
Highlights
The migration of Mexicans to the United States has been a social phenomenon occurring in almost all the Mexican territory
Its operation is divided in three aspects: first, it has managed programs coming from the federal administration in a decentralized way; secondly, it has taken in the initiatives of other states with greater migratory experience; and it has designed its own programs to serve the migrants from Hidalgo
From the creation of the CAHIDEE in 1999 and until its transformation into the General Directorate of Attention to Migrants in Hidalgo (DGAM) in 2015, the main functions of this public body have been to include the migratory issues in the political agenda of the state government and to implement support and linkage actions to meet the needs of the communities from Hidalgo settled in the United States
Summary
The migration of Mexicans to the United States has been a social phenomenon occurring in almost all the Mexican territory. The text is placed in an explanatory paradigm that tries to establish conclusions in terms of causality This type of research turns out to be the most interesting from the theoretical point of view, since the data collected indicate whether or not there is correlation and, in some cases, allow inferring whether the alleged cause is earlier than the effect considered (Anduiza et al 1999: 29). Before 1999, the state policy demonstrated an indifference towards the people from Hidalgo living abroad Such position followed the traditional line of “non-politics policy” on migratory issues (García, Grieco, Verea 1988). DGAM has designed a care migratory model that seeks to permanently get involved with migrant communities from Hidalgo living in the United States in addition to meet the family needs of migrants in their place of origin. Its operation is divided in three aspects: first, it has managed programs coming from the federal administration in a decentralized way; secondly, it has taken in the initiatives of other states with greater migratory experience; and it has designed its own programs to serve the migrants from Hidalgo
