Migración y seguridad en la política exterior mexicana

In a world plagued with migratory movements, governments and institutions, such as the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the
United Nations (UN), have attempted to reach agreements to deal with the problem. According to the author, countries that suffer
waves of emigration and immigration have tried to surmount this challenge by implementing a series of solutions that range from improvised measures to specific agreements, for instance, the Temporary Agricultural Workers Program between Mexico and Canada. The migratory relationship between Mexico and the United States is the next issue addressed by the author, who gives us a rundown of the current situation and proposes paths that could be explored with a view to reaching a migratory agreement. Escobar Latapí then concludes that it would be advisable to opt for a bilateral, “concentrated” foreign policy with the United States, while continuing to work on the migration issue with international organizations and other continents.
