Resumen
PORRAZ GOMEZ, Iván Francisco. Understanding Violence: Young Central American Migrants in Their Places of Origin and During Their Trip North Through Southern Mexico. Nueva antropol [online]. 2017, vol.30, n.87, pp.107-130. ISSN 0185-0636.
The main objective of the present article is to analyze the violence young Central American migrants undergo in their places of origin and during their trip through southern Mexico, specifically at the border crossing at Tapachula in the Soconusco region of the state of Chiapas. I am interested in the experiences of young people between 18 and 29 years of age who cross the border and travel through the area referred to; the violence they undergo as a social construct and; the visible vulnerabilities and harm inflicted as a result of the devaluation of these young people who have a right to dignified lives in their places of origin and throughout their trip.
Palabras llave : young central american migrants; violence, southern Mexico.
