Performing, contesting, and resisting internal bordering of refugee rights in Costa Rica

This article begins to fill this gap by documenting and analyzing the treatment of displaced people in search of protection in this country. Based on the fieldwork conducted in 2023 with refugee claimants and representatives from NGOs and international organizations, combined with the analysis of media coverage, reports, and a…

Transgressing Humanitarian Borders in Southern Mexico: Turning Obstacles into Resources
Acts of Citizenship in Time and Space among Agricultural Migrant Workers in Quebec during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Migrant farm workers recruited under Canada’s temporary employment programs work in difficult environments, under poor working conditions, and live in unsafe housing in remote rural communities. Fearful of repatriation or replacement, many accept their working and living conditions as part of a necessary sacrifice to improve their living conditions and those of their families in the countries of origin. At the same time, some migrant farm workers…
Bordering human rights: Displaced peoples’ experiences of containment and human rights violations
Contributing to debates in human rights and critical migration and border studies, this article focuses on how certain bordering practices limit displaced people from accessing universally recognised human rights. Specifically, it draws attention to some key bordering practices that restrict the physical mobility of displaced people in Turkey and Mexico. These two countries have become responsible for offering protection to many displaced people …
Understanding Migrant Farmworkers’ Health and Well-Being during the Global Covid-19 Pandemic in Canada: Toward a Transnational Conceptualization of Employment Strain
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Canada imposed certain international travel bans and work-from-home orders, yet migrant farmworkers, declared essential to national food security, were exempt from such measures. In this context, farm worksites proved to be particularly prone to COVID-19 outbreaks. To apprehend this trend, we engaged an expanded and transnational employment strain framework that identified the employment demands and resources underst…
Intensity and uncertainty: Performing border conflicts at the US–Mexico borderlands
This article draws on border studies that recognise rebordering practices as ongoing performances of conflict between various actors including state authorities, border security agents, migrants, migrant supporters, smugglers, international organisations, lawyers, advocates and others. We draw attention to variable levels of intensity with which these conflicts are performed and the impact they have on migrants' ability to exercise their agency. …
Le droit à la ville ou le droit à la mobilité? Les demandeurs d'asile d'Amérique centrale en attente dans l'espace urbain tijuanense
Des recherches récentes ont montré que les migrant‐e‐s disposent du potentiel pour remettre en question les pratiques qui limitent leur mobilité et compromettent leur sécurité et leur bien‐être. Les chercheur‐e‐s travaillant sur le paradigme du droit à la ville et adoptant une approche critique sur la citoyenneté ont constaté que les migrant‐e‐s revendiquent leur citoyenneté (par exemple, un statut juridique ou des revendications formelles et inf…
Containing mobile citizenship: Changing geopolitics and its impact on solidarity activism in Mexico
Questioning the depiction of pro-migrant solidarity as unequivocal and transformative, the article draws attention to two types of ambivalences evident in the solidarity activism in Mexico. The vacillation between two different goals, that is, protecting migrants’ rights to mobile citizenship (i.e. the right to safe and secure mobility through Mexico) and the right to stay and settle in Mexico, constitutes the first type of ambivalence. We call i…
The politics of 'waiting' for care: Immigration policy and family reunification in Canada
This paper analyses two dimensions of ‘waiting’ in the realm of family reunification: the policy perspective and the immigrants’ experience. First, in line with the migration management paradigm, the Canadian government has introduced various measures to reduce ‘waiting times’. We discuss changes in the family reunification programme of parents and grandparents implemented since 2011 as emblematic of these measures. Such changes are also situated…

À partir d'un travail ethnographique réalisé en 2011 et en 2012 auprès de travailleurs agricoles et d'acteurs-clés de l'île d'Orléans (région de Québec), nous montrons comment le territoire, en tant que lieu social et géographique, façonne le quotidien des migrants qui participent aux programmes canadiens de travail temporaire…

Essentiels, fiables et invisibles: Les travailleurs agricoles migrants latino-américains au Québec vus par la population locale
