The objective is to acknowledge local fiscal revenue as a tool to finance infrastructure, by estimating the border effect on the collection of the property tax. A panel data set (2010-2019) of the Mexican municipalities is used to estimate different models by fixed effects. The results show that border municipalities collect $69 to $75 Mexican pesos per capita more than non-border municipalities. We argue about the use of local sources to finance infrastructure on the north border region of Mexico. In the estimation of the border effect, compared to previous studies, a broader database is used, that includes all Mexican municipalities. We conclude that institutional differences are important for explaining differences and evolution in the collection of property tax. Local sources of funding, in the face of the need for infrastructure, can be exploited if there is an adequate institutional framework.

This article corresponds to the critical studies on the immigration and border control regime and contributes to the knowledge that this regime acquires in the South American region, specifically in Argentina. It focuses on the dimension of expulsability, which refers to the legal and administrative tools that make possible the legal production of migratory illegality. The objective is to analyze, from a gender perspective, the statistical evolution of three state tools between 2010 and 2020: denial of entry, residence cancellations and expulsion provisions. The normative context is also analyzed, and specialized literature is reviewed. This study suggests that, as in the countries of the global north, in Argentina the production of expulsability is masculinized. It is essential to attend to the gendered migration control, incorporating an intersectional and situated perspective, which considers the differential effects on men, women and other gender identities.

The objective of the article is to analyze the impact of cross-border retail trade by estimating spending by sector on both sides of the Ciudad Juárez-El Paso cross-border conurbation. The expenditure estimation was done with the information provided by the cross-border survey of international bridge users, during the period October-December 2019. The results show that expenditures made by residents in Mexico who crossed into the United States were 177.7 million usd and those in the United States who crossed into Mexico 141.2 million, during the last quarter of 2019. Residents in Mexico indicate that their main reasons for crossing are shopping, work and school and U.S. residents to attend family reunions, medical or dental consultation and purchase medicine. Therefore, it is concluded that integration between the two cities is partial.

The problems derived from the phenomenon of migration in route to the United States have exceeded the responses, both from the countries of origin and transit, impacting children who migrate and who live exposed to the risk of suffering violations of their human rights. To contribute to research sensitive to their needs, we recovered the voices of 34 girls and 42 boys —from Mexico and the North of Central America— from January to July 2021 to explore the conditions of vulnerability and their experiences during transit through Mexico. Through their testimonies, they became aware of the experiences and emotional repercussions derived from conditions such as insecurity, violence, and poverty, which they experience along their route and undermine their right to an optimal life.

This article analyzes the main transformations of state policies in the Andean region in the face of Haitian migration during the period 2010 to 2019. In addition, in the case of Ecuador, the profiles are analyzed quantitatively, specifically for the population settled in the province of Pichincha, where most Haitians live. We argue that the reconfiguration of migration projects, based on what is observed in Ecuador, allows us to think of Haitian migration within a migratory continuum in which states and society, by action and omission, produce and sustain practices and relationships. That keep migrant lives on the sidelines; thus generating the discomfort, violence and discrimination necessary to keep Haitians on the move, as a mechanism of control and exclusion.

Free trade between the United States and Mexico is credited with having developed one of the largest bilateral trading relationships in the world. Yet Mexico-United States trade has been significant for more than a century. Our objective is to show how bilateral trade increased independently of the trade agreement that took effect in 1994, and to specify the other reasons why trade grew. We measure trade flows from the 1880s to the present and estimate a gravity model for the period 1948-2006. The gravity model shows that the fundamental characteristics of Mexico and the United States explain the volume of trade independently of the trade agreement. The trade agreement reduced uncertainty which likely had a positive effect on trade flows. Our analysis does not estimate the quantitative impact of reduced uncertainty but shows that proximity and size of the market were more significant that the trade agreement.

During the 21st century, more than five million people left Venezuela. Since 2015, Mexico has been a receiving country for Venezuelans. The objective of the article is to analyze vulnerability contexts, socio-spatial distribution and social representations of Venezuelan migrants in the Monterrey Metropolitan Area (MMA), Mexico. The fieldwork was carried out during the summer 2020, under pandemic conditions, using mostly digital platforms and information coming from various official sources. The methodology has a mixed approach, prioritizing the qualitative aspect. The used techniques were hierarchical evocation and mental maps for social representations, as well as a survey for socio-spatial distribution and vulnerability. Among the conclusions, family and friends’ networks stand out as support for the Venezuelan who arrives at the MMA, generally a prepared subject. The predominant vulnerability is related to finding stable jobs, accessing public health services and having quality education.

In the 1990s, the EU adopted the political idea of migration management to deal with migrations from third countries. This cleared the way for an externalization of the communitarian migration control to other regions. In this regard, there are studies on the effects of this process on African, East European, and Asian countries. In contrast, the literature has neglected the Latin American and Caribbean zone. The aim of this article is to analyze the process of externalization to Latin America and the Caribbean, through the EU budget lines for migration management between 2001 and 2020. Based on the examination of a corpus of official documents, the work shows that the EU has a matrix for migration management, defined by three axes: external borders, fight against “illegal” immigration, and development. The projects developed in Latin America and the Caribbean have reproduced this matrix, working as tools of the communitarian migration control.

The concept of eco-frontier examines the actions of ecological actors to analyze the ways in which these contribute to transform biodiversity-rich territories. Eco-frontiers are discursive and spatial appropriations that evolve in different historical stages. This article analyzes the case of the Maya Forest as an emerging eco-frontier since the 1970s. The Maya Forest is a concept constructed by ecological actors to conserve tropical rainforest that covers the border region between Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize. Based on analysis of various first-hand materials, the article shows how the construction of the Maya Forest-concept has transformed the borderland into a scenic eco-region subject to tropical conservation. Simultaneously, the appropriation of the Maya in its scientific and touristic dimension suggests the construction of international biocultural borderlands. However, the issue of indigenous rights, multicultural context and that of multispecies remain subject to debate.
