MENESES, Guillermo Alonso. The Gulag-border and Mexican Migrant Deportations. Desacatos [online]. 2014, n.46, pp.14-31. ISSN 2448-5144.
The increasing strict and aggressive border control that the United States has in its border with Mexico had two key moments in 1993 and 2001 that can explain the current statu quo. In the coming years the threat of jihadist terrorism, drug trafficking, and undocumented migrants crossing are enough "reasons" to strength surveillance and build more "sealed" points. This border has actually turn the migrants more vulnerable to potential damage: at the south side they are between of organized crime and in the north side infrastructure, modus operandi of the border patrol, policies, legislation and internal persecution result in deportations that are hard to face. Apprehensions, removed events and deaths counted in just the past seven years show that there have been major changes in the flow-process of migrants crossing.
