The Strategic Production of Hate: Anti-migrant Discourse and Xenophobic Practices in Foz de Iguazú, Brasil
No full textThe objective of the article is to describe ethnographically the social impacts of anti-immigration hate speech in the Brazilian city of Foz de Iguazú (in the Paraná Triple-border). We analyze the current Brazilian political context, investigating the present impact of the imaginaries of distended militarism on these borders since 1970. We use an ethnographic methodology, with 60 qualitative interviews and a focus group with 11 participants (international migrant students, teachers and technical staff from the University of Latin American Integration). The results show that xenophobia was converted into an official discourse in Brazil, articulated with statements that advocate intolerance towards minorities and vulnerable sectors. This has a particular impact on Foz, given the border and military configurations of the city. Likewise, the study allows us to conclude that both xenophobic discourses and practices are articulated by racist imaginaries that have a stronger impact on migrant women.Fil: Lube Guizardi, Menara.

EL (DES) CONTROL DEL “YO”: FRONTERA Y SIMULTANEIDAD EN UNA ETNOGRAFÍA SOBRE LAS MIGRANTES PERUANAS EN ARICA (CHILE)
No full textSe analizan las formas de reorganización del "yo" de mujeres migrantes a partir de un estudio sobre la migración peruana en la ciudad chilena de Arica, en la frontera entre Chile y Perú. Luego de describir el contexto sociohistórico de la ciudad, detallaré la propuesta metodológica desarrollada para el estudio. De la mano de la perspectiva transnacional de los estudios de la migración, analizaré algunas consideraciones teóricas fundamentales sobre el concepto de simultaneidad, definiéndolo como una relación dialéctica en tres dimensiones, a partir de las cuales, se articulan formas contradictorias de subjetividad. Para ilustrar mis reflexiones, relataré ejemplos de situaciones y diálogos del trabajo de campo que evidencian las formas particulares de la construcción del "yo" por parte de mujeres migrantes, discutiendo su producción simultánea y transnacional

The Migration Crisis and the Ecstasies of Hatred
No full textThis chapter introduces the book by describing the transformation of the hegemonic imaginaries on migration since the nineties. Theories produced in the Global North describe that decade as an “era of migration” while the present moment has been typified as a “post-globalized” one. This new era is characterized by a political turn to the right (and extreme right) in many countries of the world; the production of anti-immigration hate speech, and an increase in racism, xenophobia, classism, and misogyny. The chapter explores the impacts these processes have on the American Southern Cone, which is facing an increasingly severe crisis with social, economic, and political dimensions. This crisis results from the radicalization of neoliberal policies implemented in countries such as Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. Understanding how this globalized scenario thrives in, changes, or alters specific contexts in the American Southern Cone, and its peculiar relationship with the migratory phenomenon, presents challenges for social research. This volume aims to respond to these challenges; its objectives, analytical frameworks, and contributions are summarized at the end of this chapter.Fil: Lube Guizardi, Menara.

El cuidadómetro fronterizo: Sobrecarga femenina y estrategias de movilidad en la Triple Frontera del Paraná
No full textEl artículo aborda la relación entre las sobrecargas de los cuidados y las estrategias de movilidad transfronteriza femeninas en la Triple Frontera del Paraná. Se muestra cómo las asimetrías estatales entre los tres países colindantes (Argentina, Brasil y Paraguay) generan diferencias de acceso a derechos básicos, particularmente, a la atención sanitaria. Partiré contextualizando la Triple Frontera, ofreciendo una síntesis de las experiencias/problemáticas femeninas en estos territorios. Luego, revisaré los debates teóricos sobre cuidados, fronteras y género en territorios transfronterizos. Los apartados cuatro, cinco y seis recuperan mis diálogos con tres mujeres, conduciendo a reflexiones sobre cómo ellas elaboran un “cuidadómetro”: basando sus estrategias de movilidad transfronterizas en las mediciones de las potencialidades del cuidado recibido y entregado en cada lado de las fronteras
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
