MIRANDA, Bruno  e  SILVA HERNANDEZ, Aída. Overwhelmed Management: Asylum Applications in the United States and Waiting Mechanisms Beyond its Borders. Migr. Inter [online]. 2022, vol.13, rmiv1i12385.  Epub 22-Ago-2022. ISSN 2594-0279.  https://doi.org/10.33679/rmi.v1i1.2385.

The article analyzes the production of border waiting spaces generated by the U.S. asylum policy through the metering and the Migrant Protection Protocols. These mechanisms are understood as part of a migration management repertoire that has turned several Latin American borders into waiting “buffer-territories.” The analysis focuses on migration contention and waiting in Tijuana, Baja California, and Central American and Haitian asylum seekers arriving at the border from 2016. The research was carried out using a qualitative approach and specialized bibliographic review. The findings show how the two mechanisms articulate with each other and, together with the indefinite extension of waiting imposed by COVID-19, suggests a sort of preamble to the cessation of the right of asylum in the United States.
