Abstract

Many of the most interesting works published by Hispanic American authors on contemporary migration represent different forms of violence connected to wars, dictatorships and repression, which are consequences of the criminal economy and its relationship with neoliberalism, produced by machismo and trafficking of women and children. However, symbolic and epistemic violence deserve special attention, perhaps because they are less visible than the other one. They are due to the stigma imposed on “other” identities, non-normative sexualities, or the structural marginalization of subaltern subjects (for example, indigenous people and people from disadvantaged social classes, but also women and young people).
