Abstract

El propósito del artículo es examinar el empleo por cuenta propia y una muestra de microempresas de inmigrantes brasileños en Toronto, Canadá, y revelar sus mecanismos de redes sociales, la influencia de la cultura y del capital humano. La metodología abarcó la aplicación de 74 cuestionarios a empresarios brasileño-canadienses y 42 entrevistas semiestructuradas, con el objetivo de comprender sus experiencias y relaciones vividas. Los resultados incluyen indicar como causas de la migración a la inseguridad económica, la inestabilidad política y la violencia, así como demostrar que el capital social es fundamental para el inicio y el desarrollo de los negocios, viéndose motivados a emprender sus propios negocios por necesidad, debido a barreras en el mercado laboral. Al ser un estudio exploratorio, el artículo se limita a discutir aspectos descriptivos de la comunidad brasileña de empresarios. Sin embargo, sus implicaciones podrían abarcar nuevos estudios que impliquen la formulación de políticas migratorias para recién llegados, estudios longitudinales o comparaciones con otras etnias.
