When necronarratives travel
Necropolitics have characterised Latin America’s contemporary conflicts and dictatorships. This article draws from 15 in-depth interviews with migrants from post-conflict and dictatorial Latin America (from Guatemala, Colombia, El Salvador, Venezuela, Chile, Argentina, and Uruguay) living in Australia, to explore what happens when memories travel in post-violence contexts. Based on the recollection of fragmented memories of violence and conflict,…
Examining Infrastructures of Welcome in Regional Australia
National and local initiatives aim to encourage long-term settlement in regional/rural Australia by creating welcoming environments. This often involves facilitating multicultural events and access to settlement services. Drawing on qualitative research with migrants in regional Queensland, this article addresses how less explicit aspects of reception shape how welcome migrants feel. This includes migration policies, restricted access to formal s…
Calibrating Comfort in the Care-Control nexus of Humanitarian Borderwork
People seeking safety through migration often move through spaces of humanitarian care, including shelters, camps, and transit sites. Despite differences in resources and infrastructure, issues with overcrowding and poor thermal conditions persist globally. These concerns are directly linked to the degree in which comfort is considered in the design of humanitarian and emergency spaces. Drawing on research regarding Brazil’s military-humanitarian…
Friendly, not friends
Visa policies and pathways are increasingly driving international migration to Australia’s regional and rural centres. Often embedded within a multicultural imaginary, notions of friendliness and neighbourliness are instilled in the ‘small town’ narratives of these regional cities. However, little is known about whether this friendliness translates to the formation of deeper, meaningful connections that create the conditions for a sense of belong…
Intimate geographies of precarity
The recent increase in Venezuelan migrants and refugees to Brazil has prompted a humanitarian response coordinated by multiple government agencies and inter/national organisations. This coordination effort sits under the umbrella of the Operation Welcome task force, in which the military is heavily involved. Situated in the northern state of Roraima, bordering Venezuela, this article explores one particular site of humanitarian care: a set of Wat…
Mediating Mundane Life
The recent and ongoing exodus of Venezuelans to the surrounding Latin American region has sparked international humanitarian intervention. Drawing on research conducted in Brazil in late 2019, this article focuses on the state-led humanitarian response to Venezuelan migration and its collaborative efforts with the military and leading organizations. Looking at two sites of institutional care, I argue that temporal structures created by military-h…
Debilitating mobilities
The recent political and economic crisis in Venezuela has given rise to an increase in Venezuelan migrants and refugees to Brazil. Situated in the northern state of Roraima, bordering Venezuela, this research explores the military-humanitarian response coordinated by the Brazilian government. Investigating the underpinning logic of such a humanitarian approach highlights the ways in which vulnerable mobile groups are offered support, while at the…
Across the Pacific Divide
There has been a paucity of comparative research regarding social inclusion for the Latin American diaspora worldwide, and this is particularly the case for scholarly work that connects countries in the Americas with nations across the Pacific. Rather than recognise the growing number of Latin Americans who travel throughout the regions of the Pacific Rim, scholarship has remained heavily dominated by works relating to the Latin American populati…
