L’AMAZONIE BRESILIENNE, NOUVELLE INTERFACE MIGRATOIRE ENTRE LES CARAÏBES ET L’AMERIQUE DU SUD ? (Brazilian Amazonia, new migratory interface between Caribbean World and South America?)
Abstract
A imigração haitiana na Guiana Francesa, que costuma passar pelo Suriname, agora parece chegar pela Amazônia brasileira. Essa se tornou o ponte de passagem de importantes fluxos haitianos, mas que na verdade dirigem-se principalemente em direção à metrópole de São Paulo, novo eldorado para populações caribenhas sinistradas. Hoje juntada por outros fluxos oriundos da África e até da Ásia, essa migração mostra a recomposição da organização tradicional do mundo, como da nova importância do Brasil como potência regional no mundo americano. A Amazônia está se impondo agora como um novo cruzamento, que está permitindo uma integração melhor das Américas, inclusive com as migrações.
Palavras-chave: Amazônia, Caribe, Haiti, Guiana Francesa, migrações, integração regional.
ABSTRACT
Haitian migrations in French Guiana, which usually transit by Suriname, yet seem to transit by the Brazilian Amazonia. This country became the entrance of an important flow of Haitian immigrants, which indeed are going to the metropolis of São Paulo, new Eldorado for wretched Caribbean populations. Now joined by other flows arriving from Africa and even Asia, these migrations are showing the new combination of the traditional organization of the world, as well as the new importance of Brazil as a regional power in the American world. Amazonia is yet becoming a new crossroad facilitating a better integration of the Americas, including by the migrations.
Key words: Amazonia, Caribbean, Haiti, French Guiana, migrations, regional integration.
RÉSUMÉ
L’immigration haïtienne en Guyane, qui généralement passe par le Surinam, semble désormais venir par l’Amazonie brésilienne. Cette dernière est bien devenue le point de passage d’importants flux haïtiens, mais qui se dirigent en fait prioritairement vers la métropole de São Paulo, nouvel Eldorado pour des populations caribéennes sinistrées. Désormais rejointe par d’autres flux venus d’Afrique et même d’Asie, cette migration témoigne d’une recomposition de l’organisation traditionnelle du monde mais aussi de la place nouvelle prise par le Brésil comme puissance régionale dans le monde américain. L’Amazonie s’impose désormais comme un nouveau carrefour, permettant une meilleure intégration des Amériques y compris par les migrations.
Mots-Clés: Amazonie, Caraïbes, Haïti, Guyane, migrations, intégration régionale.
