The researcher conducted semi-structured audio-recorded interviews of 13 mothers and expectant mothers who had migrated to Spain from Latin America. Qualitative analysis revealed several themes, including Challenges in Spain and Opportunities in Spain. Challenges were of three main types: personal and relationship challenges, economic challenges, and perceived racism and stereotyping. Opportunities were also of three primary types: future opportunities for the Latinas’ children, increased safety, and greater personal independence. None of the women mentioned the possibility of returning to their country of origin, suggesting that perceived opportunities in Spain outweighed the challenges they faced. The findings are considered from the perspective of the empowerment of immigrant Latina mothers in Spain. While interview responses gave little evidence of economic, educational, social, or political empowerment, they did suggest that the women demonstrated considerable psychological empowerment, including resilience, perseverance, and determination to move forward despite challenges.

西班牙的拉丁美洲移民母亲:感知到的挑战和机遇

研究人员对 13 位从拉丁美洲移民到西班牙的母亲和准妈妈进行了半结构化录音访谈。定性分析揭示了几个主题,包括西班牙的挑战和西班牙的机遇。挑战分为三种主要类型:个人和关系挑战、经济挑战以及感知到的种族主义和刻板印象。机会也分为三种主要类型:拉丁裔孩子的未来机会、增加安全性和更大的个人独立性。没有一位女性提到返回原籍国的可能性,这表明在西班牙感受到的机会超过了她们面临的挑战。研究结果是从赋予西班牙移民母亲权力的角度考虑的。
