Women Who Stay Behind examines the social, educational, and cultural resources rural Mexican women employ to creatively survive the conditions created by the migration of loved ones. Using narrative, research, and theory, Ruth Trinidad Galv�n presents a hopeful picture of what is traditionally viewed as the abject circumstances of poor and working-class people in Mexico who are forced to migrate to survive.

The book studies women's and families' use of cultural knowledge, community activism, and teaching and learning spaces. Throughout, Trinidad Galv�n provides answers to these questions: How does the migration of loved ones alter community, familial, and gender dynamics? And what social relations (convivencia), cultural knowledge, and women-centered pedagogies sustain women's survival (supervivencia)?

Researchers, educators, and students interested in migration studies, gender studies, education, Latin American studies, and Mexican American studies will benefit from the ethnographic approach and theoretical insight of this groundbreaking work.

Ruth Trinidad Galván is an associate professor at the University of New Mexico in the Department of Language, Literacy, and Sociocultural Studies. She is the co-editor of the Handbook of Latinos and Education.
