ALBA, Francisco. Towards a evaluation of the migratory negotiations of 2001. Pap. poblac [online]. 2006, vol.12, n.48, pp.33-50. ISSN 2448-7147.

The paper attempts an evaluation of the migration negotiations between Mexico and the United States in 2001. The evaluation takes into account an institutional perspective. The situation of migration relations before the negotiations is first analyzed. Next, the Mexican government agenda of five points is explained. Subsequently, the limits and legaties of the negotiations are discussed in the context of the events of September 11 that changed the whole bilateral relationship and directed it toward national security issues and the fight against terrorism. Finally, the political options that exist in a post-09/11 restrictive context is explored.
