Imigração brasileira contemporânea: brasileiras e brasileiros na Espanha

Abstract

This article presents partial results of doctoral research, in which the Brazilian diaspora is presented, making a geographic cut and detailing this immigration in Spain. It is presented through a bibliographical review and, also, from research data that represents the Brazilian collective in the country, and specifically in Catalonia. Characterized by being a nationality invisibilized in the context of immigration, with the exception of Portugal, recent data on Brazilian immigrants in this context, it is highlighted what represents the female immigration in such an invisibility scenario. In Barcelona, although the Brazilian collective appears numerically small compared to other nationalities, it is very representative, since many of them live there with a European nationality and seem to express "in the streets" their Brazilianness.
