“…I think it is a disgrace and has no legal justification. (Diop, 2020) By emphasizing the essentiality of the workers in framing calls for status regularization, Spanish activists are thus realigning their earlier frames based on human rights and on their economic contributions (Santi, 2018) to the themes that became prevalent during the pandemic.…”

Drawing on insights from scholarship on contentious action frames, this article examines the framing of demands for social justice for migrant farmworkers in Spain, Italy and Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic. We focus particularly on how activists in each country aligned their action frames with prevalent public discourses on the essential contribution migrants make to agricultural production, the need to guarantee “health for all,” and “increased vulnerability” of migrants’ lives during the global health crisis. Using these diagnostic frames, activists in the three countries called for secure legal status for all migrants. Drawing on the literature on contentious action frames, we then analyze if action frames advanced by activists during the COVID-19 pandemic “resonated” with the understanding of these issues by policymakers. We challenge an approach to understanding resonance in binary terms as either present or absent. Instead, we introduce the notion of “ambivalent resonance” to draw attention to the fact that some frames are accepted only partially or only by some policymakers but not the others, as was the case in the three countries under study. We then situate this ambivalent resonance in the context of immigration priorities and recent trends in immigration policy development in these three countries and suggest that activists can build on ambivalences to advance migrant rights to status.

“…Residen 1.492.522 extranjeros en el país, correspondiente al 8% de la población. Unos 750.000 han ingresado en los últimos cuatro años (Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas [INE] y Departamento de Extranjería y Migraciones [DEM], 2020), transformando las tendencias migratorias orientadas a los países centrales, en coherencia con el cierre de fronteras en Estados Unidos, Canadá y Europa, conocida como "inmigración cero" (Santi Pereyra, 2018). Una nueva realidad Sur-Sur (Bravo y Norambuena, 2018), rediseña el mapa intrarregional y de nuestro país, asociada a países limítrofes como Perú, Bolivia y Argentina, con colectivos no fronterizos provenientes de Venezuela, Haití y Colombia (INE y DEM 2020).…”

Crisis sociopolítica, pandemia y vivienda precaria: ¿Arraigo haitiano en Santiago de Chile? (2019-2021)

The logic of the so-called “social distancing” has highlighted the vulnerability of immigrants, especially those of Haitian origin. Facing this, through qualitative methodology, the relationship between the measures decreed in the face of the pandemic, a political-social crisis that precedes it, informal labor, and precarious housing, is explored, since these points are key to understanding the formation of a unique habitat, ties, and the building of a “territorialized us”, which provides answers to how the health crisis is lived, and how the project of life and social insertion in Chile, particularly in Santiago, is redefined. This is a young population with difficulties to exercise the right to the city within the principles of democracy, equality, and social justice, being cast as second class due to daily and institutional racism. These conditions have effects on the migrant route, their intentions to settle, and the tendency to return to their countries of origin.
