Abstract
This article analyses some aspects of the Brazilian program of Interiorization of people from Venezuela based on the experience of some “family nuclei” that were transferred from Roraima to Rio Grande do Norte in 2018. The text proposes a comparison of the internalization program, in its local outlines in Caicó, with the solidarity resettlement program previously researched in other regions of the country, suggesting that there is a continuity of some administrative traditions of people in exodus and, at the same time, pointing out significant transformations in the administration of migratory affairs in recent years. The article concludes with the reflection of some political and ethical challenges that arouse during the periods of participant observation that gave rise to this contribution.
Key words:
