Summary
Introdução A partir do início do ano de 2011, um movimento migratório com escassa presença na história brasileira – a imigração haitiana - ganhou notoriedade. A novidade do fenômeno, as trajetórias assumidas por essa imigração e os desdobramentos de sua presença no debate público em torno das políticas migratórias e dos processos de cidadania das migrações internacionais no país vão assumir visibilidade, especialmente a partir a intensificação dessas narrativas midiáticas que enunciam as dinâmicas de chegada e inserção de haitianos no Brasil.
