Alex Eleazar is a graduate student in the Department of Sociology at the University of California,  Santa Barbara whose research interests include transnational migration and mobilities, identity  negotiation and formation, anticolonial theory, and Central America. Their dissertation will  examine how digital labor economies, such as remote work, influence patterns of privileged  migration from North America and Europe to Guatemala, with a focus on how this contemporary  migration is facilitated by previous colonial mobilities to the region and concurrent indigenous  displacement.
