The primary purpose of the analysis provided through this blog is to consider the relationship economic relationship between the United States and Mexico, and the effect that this relationship has on women living in both countries.
The target population of women will be mexicanas who have worked in Mexican industry and have emigrated to the United States and worked there as well.

A criticism of the popular focus of 'maquiladora' workers in Mexico that potentially undermines an accurate analysis of NAFTA as a wholly national transnational analytic.

The lived reality of women that have worked in Mexico--not only in industry but in other sectors adversely affected by trade.
Agriculture plays a significant role in this approach because it is largely ignored as a consideration of trade.

Mexican migrant women living in the United States in different-yet-not-so-different realities than their previous state in Mexico.
