Beskrivelse
Summary:During recent years, the non-governmental organizarions (NGO) supportive of migrants from the United States and Mexico along the California-Baja California border region, a zone of great trans-border interactions, have presented a series of responses before the anti-migration policies of the American government, some of which go beyond the governmental spheres. They have now transformed themselves into a sort of citizen diplomacy, which seeks to influence the public policies and discussion agendas on foreign relations of both countries. Common strategies and circumstantial networks have been created along the lines of this process in a somewhat informal way, which inaugurate new ways of citizen participation. It is precisely the purpose of this article to describe such organized responses.
