| Sumario: | The main objective of this paper is to study the migration of Haitians toBrazil, from the theoretical perspective of a crisis migration (SIMON, 1995; CLOCHARD, 2007). It starts with the reconstruction of emigration fromHaiti, all the way to the consolidation ofBrazilas a strategic space for this migratory flow, whether as a country of destination or transit (FERNANDES et al., 2014; BAENINGER; PERES, 2015). Facing the complex backdrop of international migration in the country, this paper discusses the contribution of mixed methodologies (ARIZA; GANDINI, 2012), using administrative records as well as field research. The socio-demographic profile of these immigrants reveals important characteristics, such as their documented condition, by the granting of humanitarian visas or refuge status requests. This feature of Haitian immigrants inBrazildefines a different dynamic compared to other migrant populations in the country, vis-à-vis their inclusion in the formal labor market and their internal migration. Haitian presence inBrazilindicates the complexity of the social field of crisis migration and its challenges in the international logic of emigration from peripheral countries to the periphery of capital (BASSO, 2003). |
