Descripción
Sumario:This article introduces an analysis about the right to the city for migrant population in Mexico City considering three main dimensions: utopia, public policy and social rights. The article is a result of both a documentary and field initial research interviewing migrants and civil organizations defending rights of migrants, during 2021 and 2022. Conclusions point out that Mexico’s City Constitution, adopted in 2017, guarantees the right to the city, but this right is not yet explicitly related to the public policies for migrant population neither hoist by the migrant collectivities in order to project their political participation.
