The aim of this paper is to highlight the problem and consider the risks and the state of social vulnerability in which this population lives. These categories of children and adolescent migrants are identified through a review of the literature, newspaper archives, and official statistics. The study draws on interviews with key informants to characterize this population. We conclude that there is a need to review existing frameworks for the protection of migrant children and to create an action protocol for officials who have contact with these children to ensure their best interests. Este trabajo analiza un segmento de la migración infantil al que se le ha llamado “menores de circuito”. Se trata de niñas, niños y adolescentes migrantes no acompañados que cruzan la frontera por diversos motivos y se les relaciona con bandas delictivas, de trata, traficantes de humanos y drogas. El propósito es hacer visible el problema y reflexionar sobre los riesgos y el estado de vulnerabilidad social que vive esta población. Mediante revisión bibliográfica, hemerográfica y de estadísticas oficiales, así como entrevistas a informantes clave se identifica y caracteriza a esta categoría de migrantes. Se concluye que es necesaria la revisión de los marcos actuales de protección a los niños migrantes y la creación de un protocolo de actuación de las autoridades que tienen contacto con ellos a fin de velar por el interés supremo del menor. 2015-01-01 2021-06-03T03:35:14Z 2021-06-03T03:35:14Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/246 10.21670/ref.2015.31.a08 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6595 spa eng https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/246/470 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/246/486 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/246/503 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/246/504 Derechos de autor 2014 Estudios Fronterizos Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades application/pdf text/html application/pdf text/html cobertura Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 16 No. 31 (2015); 207-238 Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 16 Núm. 31 (2015); 207-238 2395-9134 0187-6961
