Migration: what is going on and how we make sense of it

A new era of migration

Many academics and decision makers consider that migration has shifted tremendously, and thus we need a new paradigm to understand human mobility nowadays. More dangerous journeys, family separation and migration en masse, are some of the characteristics of today´s international mobility.

The profiles of people who migrate is changing

Families and women in bigger numbers

Industrialized countries need all kinds of workers

...and so are migration destinations and origins

Countries that used to be considered as transit countries, have now become waiting territories, where immigrants have to wait for indefinite periods of time until they can enter their final destinations.

Borders are also changing...

The concept of Border externalizationrefers to actions implemented by certain countries in order to prevent asylum seekers and migrants to reach their territories.

Internal borders are also possible

Provinces, cities or local jurisdictions can also influence immigration federal laws, in order to make it more simple or difficult for migrants to live their every day´s lifes.

Access to social right

Seres sociales

Necesitamos interactuar unos con otros. Aprendemos de forma colaborativa.

Sanctuary cities vs. anti-immigrant citie

Spaces are also socially constructed

German girls, no less muslim

Homegrown terrorism

Tayc, one of the most famous french singers

The acknowledgement of cultural diversity is moving forward but, has there been any changes? Source: Institute of Labor Economics (2018). Migration and Social Mobility. https://docs.iza.org/dp11904.pdf

Multiculturalism is only part of the solution

Migration industrial complex

Refers to the interests of public and private sectors to illegalize human mobility and make a profit out of it

Final thoughts

All migrants are not the same: social class in migration studies is important

Our capacity to relate to diversity is key for community building.

Migrants are always challenging the idea of a homogenous state

Culture, along with access to natural resources, is one of the most disputed assets of our time

Integration is not getting any easier, despite multicultural policies.
