DURAND, Jorge. New migratory phase. Pap. poblac [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.77, pp.83-113. ISSN 2448-7147.

Mexican migration to the United States is characterized by continuity and historicity which allows set phases and stages in this long process. The paper aims to analyze the bipolar era (1986-2007) and the beginning of a new one that is characterized by decreased migration flow in a context of crisis, both economically, socially and politically and in terms of governance migration. The U.S. immigration system has collapsed and solution paths have been trapped after twenty years of partial reforms, contradictory policies and a systematic campaign against immigrants.
