CONCHA VILLANUEVA, Sebastián. Proposals to regulate migrations in Chile and the obstinacy of securitism. URVIO [online]. 2018, n.23, pp.110-126. ISSN 1390-4299.  https://doi.org/10.17141/urvio.23.2018.3571.

This paper aims to analyze, in a comparative perspective, the projects to regulate migrations in Chile presented by the governments of Michelle Bachelet and Sebastian Piñera. It is argued that both share a common feature: despite having elements based on the promotion of rights, they maintain traits that correspond to a control logic. We summarize the Chilean phenomenon of immigration that motivates the creation of a new regulation, analyze the present law and, finally, establish a comparative framework that addresses the particularities of the proposed immigration laws made by the Michelle Bachelet and Sebastian Piñera governments.

Keywords : Chile; international migrations; migratory policies; security.
