Abstract

From the 1990s, the expansion of capitalism and globalization placed borders as privileged spaces for the exchange of goods, services and people. In parallel and as a consequence, they became also the place of movement of those acts considered as crimes and of those people considered as criminals. In this context, the so-called new threats to security will appear. Those threats are no longer limited to a specific ideology or territory, but rather have multiple (dis)locations. Within these, the new risks will be terrorism, drug and human trafficking, and migrants, in their various mobility processes and also directly associated with terrorism. In this article, I propose to analyze the international and regional frameworks to identify international and regional narratives and actors involved in the process of (in)securitization of migration through which it appears within the spectrum of new threats, especially those classified as irregular. By document’s analysis, I will try to make an input to the field regarding the construction of the terrorist subject in the Southern Cone, identifying how migration also becomes a possible vector of terrorist risk through the figure of asylum and refuge (forced migration).
