Abstract

This paper describes the traces of the trajectories of Haitian migrants throughout the American continent after the earthquake that affected Haiti on January 12, 2010, as well as the scars of the disastrous impacts of hostile migration policies of transit and reception countries with respect to those migrants in particular at the borders. Through the reconstruction of both categories, traces and scars, taken up from Édouard Glissant and Severo Sarduy respectively, and a hermeneutical reading of a corpus of texts written from 2010 to 2019 about the post-earthquake Haitian migration, the paper shows the heterogeneity of this migration from a double geographical and political-legal perspective.
