In terms of organizational capacity, the evidence suggests that Michoacano migrant organizations in the United States are transplanted adaptations of rural village organizing systems, and not necessarily the result of an increased exposure to American democratic and philanthropic values during the adaptation process to the host society.	cache/t435gb21x0q.txt	txt/t435gb21x0q.txt
