Abstract
The objective of this article is to analyze the Migration Control Policies from the subjectivities of migrants, by taking the border crossing as the starting point of the analysis. Specifically, how Peruvian migrants cross, dispute and negotiate their entry to the Argentine territory is asked. This article is based on a qualitative methodology, fundamentally with in-depth surveys to Peruvian women and men who migrated from the Fifties onwards. A periodization of such migration to Argentina is built, and a set of milestones on how Peruvians experience the control policies is established. The interviewees perceive themselves as survivors of such controls, by understanding them as a sine qua non condition for the crossing toward Argentina.
