description The article analyzes the problem of the expulsion of foreigners suspected to be criminals or anarchists, taking as a time frame the actions of Buenos Aires police from 1896 to 1904, when Francisco Beazley was the chief of the police. Focusing on the intersection of two different historiographic traditions –one having crime and police as its object of study, and the other focused on the emergence of anarchism- research is aimed at understanding immigrant deportation mechanisms before and after the Residence Act (1902) was approved. Despite the focus is placed on measures taken by Buenos Aires police, one of the central hypothesis of this work is that understanding police action regarding immigrant expulsion requires the study of its linkages along the Atlantic coast of South America and Europe. This way, the article aims at reconstructing the map of the transnational policing, connecting Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Montevideo and Spain. With that objective, a diverse group of sources have been consulted, including consular reports, police and crime press, local newspapers and anarchists and socialist’s writings.

El artículo analiza el problema de la expulsión de extranjeros sospechosos de ser delincuentes o anarquistas, tomando como marco temporal la acción de la policía de Buenos Aires durante la jefatura de Francisco Beazley (1896-1904). A partir del cruce de dos tradiciones historiográficas diferentes —aquella que toma como objeto a la institución policial y el mundo del delito y la que se ha preocupado por el surgimiento del anarquismo—, busca reflexionar sobre los mecanismos de deportación de inmigrantes antes y después de la aprobación de la Ley de Residencia en 1902. Si bien el foco está puesto en el accionar de la policía de Buenos Aires, una de las ideasvertebradoras del análisis es que la comprensiónde la acción policial frente a la expulsión de extranjeros requiere un estudio detenido en los enlaces entre las ciudades portuarias del litoral atlántico sudamericano y europeo. De esta manera, el artículo se propone reconstruir una cartografía de la actuación transnacional de la policía,conectando a Buenos Aires con Rio de Janeiro, Montevideo y la costa española. Para ello, se ha consultado un heterogéneo conjunto de fuentes que van desde informes consulares y prensa policial, hasta periódicos de Brasil y Argentina, pasando por escritos anarquistas y socialistas. 2016-12-27 2022-03-17T13:26:40Z 2022-03-17T13:26:40Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículos revisados por pares https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/astrolabio/article/view/15761 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/35581 spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/astrolabio/article/view/15761/16202 application/pdf Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios sobre Cultura y Sociedad Astrolabio; Núm. 17 (2016): PASADO Y PRESENTE DE LAS POLÍTICAS Y PRÁCTICAS DE CONTROL Y VIGILANCIA DE LA MIGRACIÓN EN SUDAMÉRICA; 6-41 1668-7515
