Assistant professor Iván Sandoval-Cervantes (Anthropology) published his book, Oaxaca in Motion: An Ethnography of Internal, Transnational, and Return Migration (University of Texas Press). This book is the result of almost two years of ethnographic fieldwork in Mexico (Oaxaca and Mexico City) and in the United States (California, Oregon, and Washington). In Oaxaca in Motion, Sandoval-Cervantes compares Oaxacans moving within Mexico to those living along the U.S. West Coast — demonstrating the multiplicity of answers to the question: “Who is a migrant?"
