AB  - While academic research has focused on binational marriages (i.e., marriages between
partners of different national origins), transnational divorce is still under-researched
in the field of migration and family studies. Drawing on qualitative data, this paper
analyses the testimonies of Brazilian and Cape Verdean migrant women concerning
their experiences of marriage and divorce from Portuguese partners. We adopt an
intersectional approach to highlight how some central categories—gender, social class
and migration status—influence their agency and consequences of marital disruption.
Contrary to studies in which migrant women are victimised after divorce, our results
reveal that, for these women, marital dissolution is an empowering strategy to end
up their unhappy marriages.
