LOPEZ LOPEZ, Roberto Carlos. Forced Emigration of Families due to Violence in Southern Sinaloa: Tragic and Complex Experiences. Secuencia [online]. 2020, n.108, e1727.  Epub 23-Out-2020. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i108.1727.

This article explores forced migration due to violence in Mexico, particularly in Sinaloa in the context of the “war on drugs”. The overarching aim of the article is to analyze forced emigration due to violence and integration in the receiving society, not as separate stages, but rather as part of a continuous process of migration, and the experiences of families. It explores this process from emigration through displacement to integration, marked by tragedy, social vulnerability, and fear. The article finds that it is social and family networks that have permitted the survival of families. A permanent return seems unlikely, however, because their towns have been disrupted and their conditions of safety have not been guaranteed nor has the way of life in their communities been restored.

Palavras-chave : forced emigration; violence; experiences; integration; Sinaloa.
