Description: "Explains causes of temporary labor migration from western highlands and southern coast of Guatemala to Soconusco in Chiapas. Finds that in Mexico, coffee and sugar plantations prefer Guatemalan braceros over native workers because they can be paid lower salaries, are more submissive, and can be exploited more easily"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
