GONZALEZ, ÁNAHÍ PATRICIA. The Construction of the "Dangerousness" of Migrants: An Analysis about Social Representations of Judicial System Members in the City of Buenos Aires. Estud. Socio-Juríd [online]. 2017, vol.19, n.2, pp.63-95. ISSN 0124-0579. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/sociojuridicos/a.5423.
The article discusses the construction of social imaginary about international migrants residing in Argentina. Particularly prejudicial social representations of members of the judicial system of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires with jurisdiction in contraventions (Law 1472), faults (Law 451) and in a limited number of crimes that have been transferred to the City orbit in Argentina with the aim of apprehending the migrant construction process as dangerous subject are analyzed. In the same mechanisms that stigmatization and scapegoating of foreigners in relation to certain offenses and violations occurs intersect. The result of this process proves to be the re-creation of the negative otherness of migrants. So the question stands, the results of more than 50 interviews with member of the judiciary carried out under a UBACYT Project (2010-2014) based in the IIGG of the University of Buenos Aires are analyzed.
