- Abstract:
Dentro de un contexto global, el incremento de las migraciones en diferentes regiones del mundo durante este siglo ha llevado al aumento de la producción académica sobre el tema migratorio. El objetivo del presente artículo es analizar la autonomía de las migraciones a partir de los planteamientos de dos de sus máximos exponentes, Mezzadra y De Genova, quienes indagan la condición política de las mismas, abordando las relaciones de mutua influencia entre migrantes, fronteras y Estado. El aporte de este trabajo consiste en mostrar cómo este enfoque teórico se centra en dos procesos fundamentales para entender la migración. Por un lado, hace referencia a las acciones, estrategias y prácticas de los involucrados en la conformación de las migraciones transfronterizas. Por otra parte, considera la función de los Estados y las fronteras como constructos jurídico-políticos e históricos en la configuración de los flujos migratorios internacionales (frecuentemente irregularizados).

- Abstract:
Within a global context, the increase in migrations in different regions of the world during this century has led to an increment in academic production on migration. The aim of this article is to analyze the autonomy of migration from the approaches of two of its greatest exponents, Mezzadra and De Genova, who investigate migration's political condition, addressing the relationships of mutual influence between migrants, borders, and the State. The contribution of this paper is to show how this theoretical approach focuses on two fundamental processes to understand migration. On the one hand, it refers to the actions, strategies, and practices of those involved in shaping cross-border migration. On the other hand, it considers the role of States and borders as legal-political and historical constructs in shaping international (often irregular) migratory flows. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
