description The present article rises that the illegal migration which journeys by the borders and territories of the south of Mexico, that comes mainly from the Central American North Triangle, also journeys through multiple kinds of violence. We propose a critical analysis to understand these specific kinds of violence from the figure of the State, indicating its responsibility by action, omission and complicity with it. We also present testimonies, obtained in the fieldwork, that show how the migrants, their families and communities experience this violence. Finally, we suggest thinking about political, social and cultural orders that conceive migrating with dignity.

El presente artículo plantea que la migración ilegalizada que transita por las fronteras y territorios del sur de México, proveniente sobre todo del Triángulo Norte Centroamericano, transita también por múltiples violencias. Proponemos entender dichas violencias desde la figura del Estado, analizada de forma crítica, señalando su responsabilidad por acción, omisión y complicidad con estas. Asimismo, presentamos testimonios recabados en el trabajo de campo, que muestran cómo las personas migrantes, sus familias y comunidades experimentan estas violencias.
