  • The “migration industry” through the lens of the political economy of international migration in contemporary capitalism

    Open Access•R Delgado Wise•ARTICLE•Ethnic and Racial Studies•2026

    Contemporary international migration is characterised by new infrastructures, institutions, agents and companies, with large multinational corporations playing a particularly prominent role. In partnership with leading imperialist powers, these corporations fulfil a strategic role. This emerging configuration is often referred to as the “migration industry” and exists within a broader context characterised by new and severe forms of unequal excha…

  • Migración forzada, transferencia de excedentes e «industria de la migración» en el capitalismo contemporáneo

    R Delgado Wise•ARTICLE•Migración y Desarrollo•2025

    El panorama actual de la migración internacional se compone de infraestructuras, instituciones, agentes y empresas renovados, en los que destacan las grandes corporaciones multinacionales que, en connivencia con las principales potencias imperialistas, desempeñan un papel estratégico. Esta nueva configuración, asociada a la denominada «industria de la migración», se inscribe en el contexto de nuevas y severas modalidades de intercambio desigual y…

  • Migration, Informality, and Unequal Exchange in the Context of the Mexico-US Regional Integration Process

    Open Access•R Delgado Wise, Francisco Caballero Anguiano et al.•ARTICLE•Critical Sociology•2025•Cited by: 1•References: 9

    This paper analyzes the complex relationship between migration and informality in the context of the Mexico-US asymmetric and subordinated regional integration process under neoliberalism. It argues that one of the main drivers of contemporary Mexican migration is the uneven distribution of the informal sector-and more precisely, the industrial reserve army of labor-among both countries. In this regard, Mexico operates as a strategic zone of rese…

    Open Access•R Delgado Wise•ARTICLE•Revista Española de Desarrollo y…•2023•References: 28

    Se argumenta que la relación entre migración y desarrollo en el capitalismo e imperialismo contemporáneos tiene como basamento la emergencia de una nueva división internacional del trabajo, cuyo eje es la exportación de fuerza de trabajo. Esta exportación opera por dos vías complementarias: una indirecta, mediante las plantas de ensamblaje instaladas en los países periféricos y otra directa, a través de la migración laboral. Con la profunda reest…

  • Migración, informalidad e intercambio desigual en el contexto del proceso de integración regional México-Estados Unidos

    Este trabajo analiza la compleja relación entre migración e informalidad, en el contexto del proceso de integración regional asimétrico y subordinado entre México y Estados Unidos bajo el neoliberalismo. Se argumenta que uno de los principales motores de la migración mexicana contemporánea es la desigual distribución del sector informal —y más precisamente, del ejército industrial de reserva— entre ambos países. En ese sentido, México opera como …

  • Unsettling the migration and development narrative. A Latin American critical perspective

    Open Access•R Delgado Wise•ARTICLE•International Migration•2022•Cited by: 2•References: 8

    The efforts to build an institutional framework for the governance of migration followed a complex and uncertain route. Since 2006, these efforts—which culminated in the adoption of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Secure Migration in 2018—focused on the relationship between migration and development in an attempt to avoid the negative connotations surrounding human mobility, particularly across the North‐South divide. At the heart of the…

  • Intercambio desigual en la era de los monopolios generalizados

    Open Access•R Delgado Wise, Raúl Delgado-Wise•ARTICLE•Revista de Estudios Globales.…•2022

    The objective of this article is to analyze the emergence of a new international division of labor in the era of monopolies. In a first stage, this process involves low-skilled labor associated with the dismantling of the productive apparatus in the countries of the periphery and its rearticulation with the great imperialist powers through the mecha-nism of global value chains. In a second phase, there is a restructuring of the highly qual-ified …

A diferencia de los estudios centrados en la tecnología, producción o finanzas, se enfatiza la dimensión político-institucional que posibilita determinadas condiciones de excepción.

  • Capital, Science, Technology

    Open Access•R Delgado Wise, Mateo Crossa Niell•ARTICLE•Monthly Review•2021

    Capitalist modernity not only contains profound contradictions, but is also undergoing a significant transformation. Far from acting as a driving force for the development of social productive forces, it has become a parasitic entity with an essentially rentier and speculative function. Underlying this is an institutional framework that favors the private appropriation and the concentration of the products of general intellect

  • Replanteando la cuestión del desarrollo y su relación dialéctica con la exportación de fuerza de trabajo de cara al siglo XXI

    R Delgado Wise•ARTICLE•Migración y Desarrollo•2020

    Un elemento central del capitalismo e imperialismo contemporáneos es la emergencia de una nueva división internacional del trabajo que reconfigura las relaciones de poder y dependencia en el horizonte Norte-Sur o centro-periferia. Se trata de la exportación —directa e indirecta o incorpórea— de fuerza de trabajo. Tal proceso, comandado por el capital monopolista, adquiere su connotación más amplia con la exportación de fuerza de trabajo altamente…
