SUMMARY:Transit Control Regimes: An insight into the Mexican case
DESCRIPTION:Guest speaker : Amalia Campos-Delgado
Amalia Campos-Delgado is 
 Postdoctoral Fellow at the International Centre for Comparative Criminolog
 y\, Université de Montréal. She holds a PhD in Politics from Queen’s U
 niversity Belfast. Her research focuses primarily on issues associated wit
 h migration\, securitisation of migration\, and border security.
Summary
W
 alls and fences are political and symbolic tropes for bordering practices 
 to control migration. However\, in practice\, the centrality of the infras
 tructure of control at the border is shaded by the implementation of contr
 ol mechanisms outside the territory of the state\, i.e.\, the externalisat
 ion of borders. Focusing on the Mexican context\, this talk examines Trans
 it Control Regimes as a facet of the externalisation of borders. The Mexic
 an Transit Control Regime is the outcome of border security agreements sig
 ned between Mexico and the United States where the former committed to app
 rehend\, detain and expel third-country nationals.
Considering the Mexican
  territory as a border-zone for irregular migrants en route to the United 
 States\, I examine the expansion of border control practices beyond the fr
 ontier of the state. The daily enforcement of the regime highlights the in
 terconnection between the policing of migration control and the increasing
  vulnerability of the migrant population. Specifically\, the Mexican case 
 underscores that Transit Control Regimes create new puzzles for the analys
 is of the power asymmetries within states\, the securitisation of migratio
 n\, the commodification of migration management and the spatiality of bord
 er controls.
