Resumen
El presente trabajo comparte una propuesta teórica para explorar el proceso de formación de las aspiraciones educativas de los hijos de inmigrantes mexicanos desde la óptica de la vida familiar, tomando en consideración distintos enfoques teóricos. El artículo parte de la aseveración de que «la familia es un punto estratégico para entender las dinámicas de los flujos de la inmigración (legal e ilegal) y del proceso de adaptación del inmigrante» (Rumbaut 1997: 4). La propuesta de análisis plantea abordar el objeto de estudio desde la dinámica interna de la vida familiar. Asimismo, es importante tomar en cuenta el contexto social y cultural del lugar de origen de las familias inmigrantes y el contexto de recepción.
