Orientador: Eliseu Savério Sposito / Resumo:A mobilidade do trabalho, imposta pelas relações capitalistas de produção, reforçam o sentimento de pertencimento do lugar de origem, (re)criando relações identitárias nos mais variados lugares para onde se dirigem os migrantes. O processo de formação de núcleos (territórios) com características específicas de um grupo social, seja ele de origem étnica ou regional, possibilitados pelas redes sociais, conflituam com as tendências homogeneizadoras da globalização, evidenciando espaços culturais híbridos. Estudamos este fenômeno através da migração de japoneses para o Brasil - Ourinhos (SP) - e de seus descendentes para o Japão, buscando compreender as diferentes conformações territoriais e arranjos espaciais, materializados no meio urbano e concluímos que as redes sociais encontram-se subordinadas aos interesses dos agentes econômicos hegemônicos e são elementos fundamentais para a realização dos processos migratórios. / Abstract: The labor mobility, imposed by production capitalistic relations, reinforces the feeling of belonging to the place of origin, (re)creating identity relations in the most varied places where the migrants go to. The process of area (territory) formation with specific characteristics of a social group from ethnic or regional origins, enabled by the social nets, faces the homogenizing tendencies of globalization, highlighting hybrid cultural spaces. This phenomenon was studied based on the Japanese migration to Brazil - Ourinhos (SP) - and on their descendants to Japan, aiming to understand the different territorial conformities and spatial arrangements, materialized in the urban area, and it was concluded that the social nets find themselves subordinate to the interests of hegemonic economic agents and they are essential elements to the accomplishment of migratory processes. / Doutor
