Since 1993, the U.S. Government stretched out several strategies to increase the control and vigilance in the U.S. Mexican border region. These actions modified the routes of the Mexican migratory labor flows, pushing them towards more hostile and dangerous crossing border areas, among them the Sonora-Arizona Desert. The purpose of this paper is identify the changes in those routes and point out the effects caused on the new transit localities, calling attention to the vulnerability faced by the migrants under these new circumstances.
