Resumen
CASILLAS R., Rodolfo. Construcción del dato oficial y realidad institucional: disminución del flujo indocumentado en los registros del INM. Migr. desarro [online]. 2012, vol.10, n.19, pp.33-60. ISSN 1870-7599.
International undocumented transmigration via Mexico has become a source of public attention during the 21st century, in particular due to ongoing mass abductions and collective murders unparalleled in recent his-tory. Given the u.s. economic crisis, its global effect, and those violent events, it made sense to wonder whether transmigration would diminish, to what extent and for how long. Data issued by Mexico's National Migration Institute seem to indicate a decrease in flow, however temporary -at least among those who are caught and deported by Mexican im-migration authorities. Given the importance of the international transmigration flow that passes through Mexico, this paper takes a look at official arguments as well as information not presented by the government, casting doubt on this presumed decline and pondering how much of it could be a product of official stances.
