The work discusses data from fieldwork in Criciúma (SC) and the Boston area, in United States. The data emerged from the interviews and participant observation show that women not only wait for their husbands or children, but also participate in the process, integrating and articulating migration networks. The data also highlighted the changes in the family and gender relationships, suggesting that the migratory process rearticulate these relationships. This study therefore evidences that other factors, along with the ones of economic nature, contribute for the decision of migrating and make the history of this flow.

Para tanto, discute como a participação das mulheres foi analisada nos fluxos migratórios e aborda o recente movimento de brasileiros para o exterior, descrevendo as trajetórias de homens e mulheres. O trabalho de campo, tal como a vida desses migrantes, dividiu-se entre dois lugares: a cidade de Criciúma (SC), no Brasil, e a região de Boston, nos Estados Unidos. Os dados coletados a partir das entrevistas e da observação participante têm revelado que as mulheres participam efetivamente desse processo, integrando e articulando redes de migração. Os dados também sugerem que a migração provoca rearranjos familiares e de gênero ao longo do processo.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2007-09-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X200700030001510.1590/S0104-026X2007000300015Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 15 No. 3 (2007); 745Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 15 Núm. 3 (2007); 745Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 15 n. 3 (2007); 7451806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X2007000300015/1482Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAssis, Gláucia de Oliveira2020-01-30T09:16:00Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/1757Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:37:19.314983Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
