Temporary Migration of Peasant Communals to The Cities of The Valley of Andahuaylas Before Covid 19, Apurímac Region, Peru

Abstract

The objective of the investigation was: to identify the primary circumstance for the community member to decide to temporarily migrate to the cities of the Andahuaylas valley, Apurímac region, Peru. The theoretical elements of analysis were the economic, educational, social and cultural fields. The methodology is qualitative, descriptive type, micro-ethnographic design and ex post facto level. The population was qualified community members, selected under requirements. The intentional sample made up of 60 qualified community members (male or female) from communities, under selection requirements. It was obtained as a result: the temporary migration of the commoners was developed by two circumstances that go hand in hand; educational and economic; the first to improve the educational conditions for their offspring, which falls on: better teaching of classes, conditions and adequate settings, due to teacher absenteeism. The second that is frequent, solidly practiced, for the reason that the income per harvest and daily wage in the community is not enough for the household expenses, they are low compared to those obtained in the city. The rest, the cultural aspect, do not present incidental considerations to migrate. The social aspect presents weak incident consideration. Both aspects are not decisive, if they contribute to making the decision to migrate.
