With no ticket of return. Approaches to the work and life trajectories of Spanish women in exile in France
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to trace the trajectories of exiled republican women in France based on an analysis of the mechanisms by which the exiled group is insered in the French society and its assignments from a gender perspective. Internment in camps and shelters was followed by attempts to repatriate them or use them as a contribution to the national economy in wartime and during the Occupation. In the post-war period, the benefit of refugee status as well as the refusal to return to Spain in the medium term implied the consequent need to integrate into French society. In order to reconstruct these life and work trajectories, both French administrative or aid agency documentation and testimonial sources will be very useful to analyse.
