Usibamba, today, is a transnational(ized) peasant community, which it’s expansive processes of diaspora could be traced, to a large extent, to the implementation of programs for the export of “cheap” (or precarised) labor since the last decades of the last century (Paerregaard, 2005; Gilvonio, 2009; Altamirano, 2010 and others) to U.S. cattle ranches. The purpose of this research is to investigate the strategies of women in the peasant community in the face of this historical process and phenomenon that has been going on for more than 50 years. Since it’s been the men, fathers and husbands, the ones who have been recruited for these large ranches, most women have had to remain in charge of many aspects of the productive and reproductive life of their domestic units (as well as of the peasant community). Based on the approaches of transnational migration and new rurality, the theories of social reproduction in globalization and the use of the concept of feminine strategies; as well as the application of a multilocal ethnography between Usibamba (Junín, Peru) and Bakersfield (California, United States); and, finally, the analysis of eight cases of women, we have been able to account for four types of strategies framed in a complex process of transnationalization of the households. These are: family support, circulation of care, income diversification and professional development strategies. Women's work has sustained communal life for years and their strategies are aimed at reproducing their households in adverse circumstances, as well as improving their living conditions and those of their families.
