Resumen
ESTEVENS, João. Irregular migrations and security (mis)perceptions. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2022, n.75, pp.13-28. Epub 30-Sep-2022. ISSN 1645-9199. https://doi.org/10.23906/ri2022.75a02.
The study of migration in the context of security studies presents various approaches and plural understandings due to the polysemic nature of the concept of security. There are different paradigms that examine in a distinct way the migration-security nexus, reflecting the security agendas developed in the 1990s and after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. This article assesses the securitisation of irregular migration using a thematic analysis of national security strategies considering three great powers in the world: China, Russia and the United States of America (usa). The results show dissimilar and ambiguous narratives, sometimes emphasizing border control, surveillance and right of admission, other times placing the focus on the humanitarian intervention and human rights.
