Structural violence and Undocumented immigrants

Ta
Is There a Correlation of Structural violence in the US and other countries, that which brings undocumented immigrants to the US freedom m Mexico and Central America?
These are excerpts from a research article 
"Laws and policies that govern unauthorized migration from a perspective of national security rather than human rights coproduce vulnerablity and violence"
"Paul Framer's call for a "historically deep" and "geographically broad" frame work of structural violence becomes useful in tracing how misery and "inequality are structured and legitimated over time" and reproduced in people's daily lives"
