The Canary Islands, because of their position on the southern intercontinental border and their insularity, offer particular models of individual migration flows of primarily highly vulnerable African children and a close relationship with human smuggling and trafficking networks. Las migraciones de menores extranjeros no acompañados (MENA) son un novedoso modelo de movilidad internacional en España, con particularidades respecto a otros flujos migratorios. La doble condición de menor no acompañado e irregular, genera conflictos en su atención e integración, pero es una de las premisas principales para el desarrollo de este modelo de movilidad (que no la única) y el desarrollo de sus propias estrategias. Canarias, debido a su condición de frontera sur intercontinental y su insularidad, ofrece modelos de flujos migratorios particulares, protagonizados por menores africanos con una alta vulnerabilidad y una estrecha relación con las redes de tráfico y trata de seres humanos.  Universidad Autónoma de Baja California 2015-07-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip application/epub+zip https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/517 10.21670/ref.2015.32.a01 Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 16 No. 32 (2015); 11-39 Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 16 Núm. 32 (2015); 11-39 2395-9134 0187-6961 eng spa https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/517/840 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/517/849 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/517/863 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/517/864 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/517/887 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/517/888 cobertura Derechos de autor 2015 Estudios Fronterizos
