| description |
This article focuses on analyzing the transnational activities of Colombian women living in Catalonia in order to determine if this migrant collective can be defined as transnational agent of development and social change. The research is based on the theoretical debates held on the Migration-Development-Nexus and the transnational migration paradigm. According to this paradigm, migrants create transnational social fields that link together their society of origin and destination through multi-stranded relations like the sending of remittance to their families, the creation of businesses and networks or the exchange of ideas and skills. Those elements can thus promote the development in both societies. In order to conduct the research, the article takes two key components into account that are crucial to understand the linkage between migration and development in the Colombian case: a) The armed conflict, that has lead to the forced and voluntary displacement of millions of Colombians as well as the post-conflict settings and their impact in the creation of transnational fields; b) The role that gender affects the situation and condition of migrants, as the Colombian migrant collective is characterized by a high degree of feminization.

Esta investigación está basada en los debates teóricos sobre el nexo migración-desarrollo y el paradigma de la migración transnacional. Según este paradigma, los migrantes crean campos transnacionales que vinculan las sociedades de origen y destino a través de múltiples tipos de relaciones, como el envío de remesas a sus familias, la creación de negocios y redes, o el intercambio de ideas y competencias. Estos elementos pueden fomentar el desarrollo en ambas sociedades. Para llevar a cabo el análisis, se toma en consideración dos componentes claves que son imprescindibles para comprender el nexo entre migración y desarrollo en el caso colombiano: a) el conflicto armado, que ha provocado el desplazamiento forzado y voluntario de millones de colombianos y colombianas, como los escenarios de post-conflicto y sus impactos en la generación de procesos y actividades transnacionales; b) cómo la categoría de género afecta las condiciones de la migración y la capacidad de los sujetos de adquirir compromisos en el desarrollo.2020text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=8696956(Revista) ISSN 2665-5489(Revista) ISSN 2665-5470Revista Análisis Jurídico-Político, ISSN 2665-5470, Vol. 2, Nº. 4, 2020 (Ejemplar dedicado a: Julio - Diciembre), pags. 101-125engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
