ALVITES BAIADERA, Angélica. Constitution of category “false tourist”, in Argentina. “Tailored” borders for migrants from bordering countries. Estud. front [online]. 2020, vol.21, e060.  Epub 15-Jan-2021. ISSN 2395-9134.  https://doi.org/10.21670/ref.2018060.

The following article analyzes the constitution and development of the false tourist category (FT), as part of the border control devices, within the framework of the first constitutionally elected government (1983-1989) in Argentina. To respond to this concern, a national and regional-international organizations documentary corpus are interpreted through a qualitative methodology. The main conclusions reached include that the FT is part of differential border management. This an oriented and selective surveillance is formulated to reject foreigners. The foreigners are qualified as FT, according to clothing, income, length of stay, place of origin, among other requirements. Classifying the subjects as FT, and defining their rejection, seeks to reduce the illegal potentials/futures down permanence (“undocumented” immigrants) who want to work, access the health and/or education system in Argentina.
