Abstract

The aim of this article is to examine migration between Venezuela and Colombia by taking the long view and thus filling a gap in the literature. Building on Thomas Nail's 2015 book, The Figure of the Migrant, the focus of the analysis is on regimes of social motion and the essentially political figure of the migrant. The article moves on to a more detailed empirical examination, analysing various topics such as the socio‐occupational insertion of migrants along with their demographic and economic impact, with some final thoughts about reverse migration. By offering an historical description of the process, the aim is to explore the multiple aspects of migration that manifest along this particular border. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
