According to Stephan Lessenich, in the society of externalisation there is an intense work that consists of transferring the damages and costs of capitalist relations from the European centre to the global south. Based on the above, this essay aims to demonstrate the existence of an externalising process that affects afro-descendant migrant women by the Chilean state and society, a situation that will be analysed through the seven mechanisms of externalisation proposed by Lessenich. Finally, it is worth asking: Are externalising societies only the product of externalisation by the European centre? What happens to afro-descendant migrant women in Chile?
