Abstract

LEON ROJAS, Alejandra. Migratory Governability, Reinforcing the Securitization Model in South America? The Venezuelan Exodus and its Challenges for the Colombian State. Estud. Polit. [online]. 2020, n.57, pp.210-228. ISSN 0121-5167.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.espo.n57a10.

The article challenges the model of migration governance adopted by South America to face the Venezuelan mass exodus. Some countries in the region have opted to control migration through border militarization, assuming securitist policies and meassures that add to the global tendency to assume migrations as a problem. Therefore, the text reflect on the need to take more coordinated measures among countries and to continue with the premises outlined in the region governance reference: The South American Conference on Migrations (SACM), in which respect for the human rights of migrants prevails. Also, it exposes some of the challenges of the Colombian State, as one of the largest recipients of migration from the neighboring country.

Keywords : Migration; Migration Governability; Public Politics; Security; Human Rights; South America.
