Abstract

This article aims to analyze the relationship between immigration and the labor market, taking as reference the Haitians who live in Manaus. Based on the analysis that addresses the immigrant as a “temporary worker”, is intended to show the limits of this definition and its implications for the exercise of citizenship, as it reduces the immigrant to the condition of “workforce” and not recognizes him as a subject of rights
