Resumen
PAVEZ-SOTO, Iskra. Children in global migrations: theoretical perspectives to analyze their participation. Tla-melaua [online]. 2017, vol.10, n.41, pp.96-113. ISSN 2594-0716.
The objective of this article is to offer a state of the art review on migrant childhood as a new global actor, given its greater presence in international migratory movements and within Latin America. The concept of agency capacity, complementary to individual rights, to analyze the different forms of child participation in autonomous (unaccompanied) and family migrant projects. Based on the recognition of racism and subaltern that affects migrant children, the Anglo-Saxon theory of - integration - understood as assimilation - have influence the Latin American context, where education functions as an indicator of the degree of integration. A critical revision of the concept of “second generation” is made, due to its clastic, ethnocentric and adult-centric content. Finally, a reflection is made on the transnational dimension of migrant children.
