Description
Summary:This article analyzes the case of the digital archive of Humanizando la deportación as a technopolitical space based on the production of participatory documentaries. We explore how the experiences of deported people expose the cruelty of structural and institutional violence on migration and generate situated knowledge for a qualitative understanding of this matter. We discuss how participatory documentary actively produces agency of subaltern voices. We conclude that this platform is constituted as a technopolitical space against the grain of the official discourse on migration.
