The article examines the theoretical and conceptual complexity of migration in transit as a unit of analysis based on the case study of extraregional migratory flows in transit through Central America as of 2015. Through a review of specialized literature on the subject, the paper addresses some of the main approaches and emphasis on the study of a migratory reality upon which methodological consensus does not yet exist. The article unravels some of the main characteristics, themes and priorities in the study of extraregional migration in transit through Central America and suggests some future perspectives of interest to the academic community and immigration decisionmakers.
