Migration; Social Mobility; Gender differentials; Breed; intersectionality
The Northeast region, for decades, lost considerable population contingents, either due to drought, latifundium, unemployment, social / social networks, exhaustion of productive borders, lack of job opportunities and / or study in the homeland. However, although population losses in the Northeast have cooled in recent decades, the region remains with a significant negative migratory balance. Northeasterners still emigrate, and, in most cases, in search of jobs, better income, opportunities and / or new places where there is a better quality of life. With the changes in the economic, political and social scenario of the regions of origin and destination, as well as technological advances in communication, the decision to migrate started to be subsidized by several factors, in addition to the difficulties of survival and / or social mobility. But the success of emigration depends, in large part, on the characteristics of the labor market in the destination region, which differ by gender and race. In this context, the objective of this dissertation is to analyze, for the year of 2014, the effects of the intersectionality of gender and race on the social mobility of the interregional emigrant originating in the Northeast region (and destined in another large region of the country). For this purpose, the main source of data is the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) 2014, which has a special module on questions about social mobility, in addition to the sociodemographic and migration characteristics. Through descriptive analysis, it was found that emigrants from the Northeast experienced greater upward mobility compared to non-migrants from the Northeast in 2014. However, this movement in the social structure was mostly short-distance. From the logistical models, it can be seen that, the chances of upward mobility are lower for women, regardless of the condition of migration, but with different intensities. Among emigrants, white women were the least likely to have upward mobility and among non-migrants, black women.Additionally, the findings show that for emigrants, the chances of upward mobility are greater among those aged 30 to 34, who have never lived with a spouse or partner, in too much family condition, with up to complete elementary school. , two years of residence in the destination region and black men. As for the non-migrant, the chances of upward social mobility, in 2014, are greater for individuals aged 25 to 29 years, living with a spouse or partner, a reference person, with incomplete superior and more and for white men
