For several years, the authors dedicated themselves to accompanying the experiences of Peruvian women who live, transit, and work between the border cities of Arica (Chile) and Tacna (Peru). With enormous generosity, they opened the doors of their homes and shared their life stories, as well as those of their mothers and grandmothers. The narrative of these women, the time, and the scenes they shared, led to the central theme of this book: the relationship between gender violence, the constitution of agency, and the “feminine being” of migrant women who face (not always successfully) the impositions of patriarchy on the borders of the nation-state.
