AREVALO PENA, Martha Liliana. Meanings of Border Through Territorialization Processes in Settled Migrants in the Soconusco Region, Mexico. Migr. Inter [online]. 2022, vol.13, rmiv1i12442. Epub 17-Fev-2023. ISSN 2594-0279. https://doi.org/10.33679/rmi.v1i1.2442.
This article aims to present the concept of the border based on migrants settled in Tapachula and Ciudad Hidalgo (municipal seat of Suchiate). From qualitative, ethnographic, and phenomenological research, the meaning of the border is studied from the real, the symbolic, and the imaginary through the territorialization processes that include experiences and ways of internal and external appropriation of housing and the city. The relevance of the topic is based on reflecting on the construction of a border concept based on the experiences narrated by the migrants. The concept of border is extrapolated beyond the external physical, that is, migrants experience internal borders in their being that are reflected outside in their territorialization processes, which implies a latent reality of great importance in migration studies.
