Title: Time and corporality. The reconstruction of identity in transnational migrant women through Mexican territory.

Abstract: The practices, dynamics, relationships and, above all, the meanings constructed by migrant women may tend to the recognition of principles that acknowledge their condition of humanity, which does not only refer to a legal situation or to a state ascription but primarily to the management of time and the use of the body in their journey. Paraphrasing Melucci, it can be affirmed that, with their presence, they seek to overturn the dominant logic in the symbolic field, they tend to question the definition of the codes by which being a woman is understood, they contribute to modify the reading of reality. Through their existence, they offer other ways of defining the meaning of personal and collective identity. Through their daily actions, understood as a political act, they can challenge the normative principles and values of a society in which a person of different origin is inserted. The everyday reveals the critical and political dimension of actions that by their nature are considered harmless in normalized contexts, but that acquire relevance in differentiated contexts (global, regional, national, local and personal), where tensions, negotiations, struggles that tend to demand respect for human rights as a condition for a better life can be appreciated.
