This chapter examines how the journey across Mexico has become a site of intense violence and profit making in what may be conceptualized as an industry. Through migrant testimonies, it traces how Central American migrants’ bodies, labor and lives are transformed into commodities within economies of smuggling, extortion, and kidnapping. The commodification of migrants also coincides with the transformation of local spaces into new sites of profit and insecurity.

This chapter examines the visible and less visible embodied realities of transit migration. It includes ethnographic stories and analysis of injury, illness and sexual violence and reproductive health. In doing so, the chapter explores meanings of deservingness as related to migrant health and well-being.

This chapter examines the gendered dimensions of solidarity, carework and activism in multiple contexts along the migrant journey. It links together the highly visible labors of a caravan of mothers of disappeared migrants with the less visible yet no less important labors of local women who sustain migrant shelters on a daily basis. In doing so, I demonstrate the transnational feminist politics and forms of solidarity that undergird these local and transnational economies of compassion and social justice.

Chapter Two situates lived experiences of violence within a deeper temporal and spatial context of violence across the Americas. Structural forms of violence including the legacies of civil war, neoliberal securitization, and everyday insecurity are all forces that propel mobility from Central America. The chapter suggests a historical continuum where the violence people experience along the journey is not conceptualized as new or unique, but rather a continuation of processes they have known their entire lives.

This chapter explores some of the complexities around economies of compassion and the politics of security in local spaces. On one hand, the emergence of migrant shelters demonstrates the ways local actors challenge the state and advocate for migrant rights through the creation of spaces of refuge. Yet at the same time, humanitarian aid shelters become points of contestation in local communities where migrants are feared as racialized and gendered others. The dynamics between priests, shelter workers, and local residents put into relief the ways moral imaginaries of charity, inclusion and justice are shaped by everyday economic and social realities of safety and security.

This chapter examines the diverse social relations and economies of intimacy migrants engage while en route. It aims to complicate normative understandings of human mobility and human smuggling by focusing on the intimate social relationships and forms of carework including protective pairings and simulated kinship relations that develop along migrant journeys as well as the tensions and contradictions they produce. This chapter also discusses the ways migrants maintain ties to their families.

This chapter develops the concept of the arterial border to understand Mexico’s diffused immigration enforcement strategy. It traces the development and enactment of Mexico’s arterial border from the 1980s to the present and includes three examples of how abuse, extortion and sexual violence operate as migrants encounter state agents. This chapter also introduces the shifting dynamics and novel strategies migrants develop as they are funneled into more clandestine transit routes.
