The Migration Conference 2024 Abstracts for 5 days full of research, debates and discussions on migration and all relevant topics and areas from Iberoamericana Universidad in Mexico City.
Sitting at the intersection of border studies, immigration studies, and Latinx studies, this concise volume shows how Central American migrants in transit through Mexico survive the precarious and unpredictable road by forming different types of social ties, developing trust, and engaging in acts of solidarity.

Migration, border control, and asylum are ongoing flashpoints in Canadian, American, and Mexican relations, and deeply affect the domestic politics and economies of each country. While migration has emerged as an only increasingly charged topic in public discourse, research has largely focused on North America’s lack of regional integration around mobility, often neglecting aspects of regional cooperation, hierarchy, and global engagement.

El argumento central de este libro gira alrededor del concepto de vulnerabilidad socio- territorial con la finalidad de captar la naturaleza distintiva de las nuevas situaciones de inseguridad e indefensión que la población enfrenta en las nuevas circunstancias económicas, sociales, políticas ambientales y culturales y cómo su bienestar general se ve afectado por estas nuevas circunstancias.
