El acceso de las mujeres inmigrantes a los derechos humanos: la igualdad inacabadaKeywords: feminization of migrations, subordination, social invisibility, public-private dichotomy, gender violence. Abstract: human rights offer a suitable approach for analysing the position of immigrant women and the factors that affect their access to and enjoyment of their rights. such a perspective makes it possible to examine an area of gender discrimination that is not the mere superimposition of different levels of inequality and offer a proper diagnosis for drawing up legal responses. the aim of this article is to dissect the concept and morphology of the type of discrimination or subordination that affects migrant women. such discrimination is rooted in a specific invisibility in the private-domestic sphere derived from their insertion into the labour market, the social-labour arena and the public sphere. based on this, the study speaks in terms of reinforced exclusion.
