WILLERS, Susanne. Migration and Violence: Central American Migrant Women's Experiences in Transit through Mexico. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2016, vol.31, n.89, pp.163-195. ISSN 2007-8358.
This article reviews the relationship between the migration of Central American women and the different forms of violence that accompany it. The author analyzes the three stages of the migratory process, departure, transit, and arrival, in order to show how violence is intertwined with all three. She shows how the lives of many women are marked by their different experiences of violence both in their communities of origin and in their destinations, and how these events are an important factor in their decision to migrate, to stay in some point along their way, or to return to their places of origin.
Palavras-chave : Central American migration; migration in transit; gender; continuum of violence; vulnerability.
