Abstract
This article addresses restrictions on human mobility and migrations decreed as a result of the expansion of the COVID-19 pandemic. It analyzes these restrictions' exclusionary approaches aimed mainly at the impoverished migrant population and synthesizes different facts that, over time and by means of state provisions, which are conceptualized as one of the emergency, are limiting rights. For example, the right to migrate;to receive asylum requests or non-refoulement;to live without stigmatization, racism and violence. These are all justified as a matter of national security - a concept that originates and spreads as a policy of the receiving state with a high impact on the emigrants of the expelling states. Guatemala's case is shown to be one that exemplifies how migration in transit is managed and its relationship with the establishment of a state of prevention, which corresponds to a state of emergency conceptually exposed.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Poverty is the first refereed journal to recognize the inequalities in our social, political, and economic structures, presenting progressing strategies that expand society"s increasingly narrow notions of poverty and inequality. The journal"s broad understanding of poverty—more inclusive than the traditional view—keeps the focus on people"s need for education, employment, safe and affordable housing, nutrition, and adequate medical care, and on interventions that range from direct practice to community organization to social policy analysis. The journal"s articles will increase your knowledge and awareness of oppressive forces such as racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia that contribute to the maintenance of poverty and inequality.
