CASTILLA VAZQUEZ, Carmen. Women in Transition: African Female Immigration in Spain. Migr. Inter [online]. 2017, vol.9, n.2, pp.143-171. ISSN 2594-0279.  https://doi.org/10.17428/rmi.v9i33.290.

The article reflects upon migratory movements in Spain, focusing on the role of women from Morocco and Equatorial Guinea. Immigration is analyzed as a process that leads these women towards a new reality, which severs them from their earlier lives. It also examines the integration or assimilation that accompany migration dynamics in relation to the receiving society. It can be concluded that the process is incomplete since the actual integration of women immigrants into the receiving society takes place over time, therefore, they can be considered to be "women in transition."

Palabras llave : immigration; gender; identity; Spain; Africa.
