Nuevos escenarios de la migración humana en América Latina tras la pandemia del Covid-19

Abstract

The economic, political and health situation that the world and Latin America went through due to the Covid-19 pandemic generates a particular interest in analyzing the new migration scenarios, due to the new dynamics involved in migrating under a health crisis such as the pandemic; Therefore, this article aims to describe the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on human mobility conditions in 19 Latin American countries according to data from the COVID-19 Observatory in Latin America and the Caribbean carried out by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), which responds to the need to study human mobilization through the different phases that define and integrate it as a social process typical of sociological study. Its impact lies in the relevance of the analysis in demanding times for the migrant and how important it is to have government allies for the integration process. In this way, by reviewing the report made by ECLAC, the press, magazines, scientific articles and specialized books on the subject, it is intended to cover this new panorama of mobility from the restrictive migratory measures that were taken by each of the 19 countries.
