Collective expulsions in the Plan Colchane: The necessity and proposal of a systematization of a concept of collective expulsion

Authors

Abstract

In this paper will seek to propose a systematization of a defined definition of collective expulsion based on an analysis of the relevant jurisprudence and international legislation. Then, based on the national legislative context, the case Plan Colchane will be analyzed, in particular its factual facts and the resolutions issued by the State, and will be contrasted with the proposed concept to finally determine whether collective expulsions prohibited by international law were carried out in Chile, in the context of the so-called Colchane Plan, where 138 foreigners were expelled as a group.

Keywords:

Migration, expulsion of foreigners, due process, human rights
