Summary/Abstract: This article starts from the premise that the human mobility processes that occur along with the development of capitalism present specific characteristics according to the different accumulation patterns. Therefore, the main objective is to discuss the configuration of a new accumulation pattern as a result of the COVID-19 crisis, which undoubtedly entails a reconfiguration of migratory movements. For this purpose, the analytical framework focuses on relationships between patterns, processes and policies under a historical-structural approach.
