Tras la huella del migrante: Notas deconstructivas para pensar un cierto paso

The current work tries to think of the potential relationship between de figure of the migrant and Derrida’s notion of the trace. In this respect, the trace breaks up the figure of the migrant as a pure subject of the displacement by leading him/her to a sort of powerlessness in which there is neither presence nor time, much less a passing. This would imply, thinking in the trace itself, surrendering to the incommensurability of what has no origin, principle or route to be traveled in a sort of pre-history. Despite this no-power, the trace would also allow us to sense the unique and particular indeterminacy that opens up the migrant towards the possibility of justice and, therefore, of the deconstruction.
