Abstract
Transit is a phase of migration that should be as important as the origin and destination of travel, but has been neglected in migration studies. Our interest lies in analyzing the elements that make up the subjectivity of migrants and that become motivations for undertaking their displacement, focusing more on the previous biographical experience of young people than on future aspirations, in order to distance ourselves, in this way, from traditional explanations that are oriented to consider economic issues as the main cause of migration in these latitudes.
