Beskrivelse
Summary:This article aims to reconstruct the transformations of the securitization process in the Paraná Tri-Border Area from the late 1970s to 2023. Based on critical security studies and with the use of the securitization category, a historical journey is carried out to show the construction of the Argentine border security policy from the return of democracy to the security practice of closing borders due to the pandemic. By adopting an ethnographic perspective, findings from three fieldwork stays, documentary analysis of Argentine and regional border regulations, and media news tracking are incorporated to show that the process of border securitization has been transforming and reconfiguring according to the historical moment because the fear of threats changes over the decades.
