Dominicanos y dominicanas en Suiza 25 años de migración y compromiso transnacional

Abstract

The article discusses the experiences and cultural practices of a group of transnational migrants of the Dominican Republic in Switzerland. A series of in-depth interviews, works with focal groups and conversations with key informants were the starting point in order to mark a discursive course that, in the first place, delineates this migrant populations qualitative profile; secondly pointing out the main transmigratory ways that link both nations; specifying, thirdly, the most important transnational practices inside this context; and in last place, finishing with brief analysis and description of the incorporation patterns and identity transformation observed in the Dominicans in the Swiss context.
