THEODORO, Hadriel Geovani da Silva. Spaces of violence in the case of LGBTIQ+ immigration. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2023, vol.31, n.1, e81965.  Epub Jan 01, 2023. ISSN 1806-9584.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2023v31n181965.

The objective of the study is to analyze the impacts of spaces of violence in the case of LGBTIQ+ immigration. The qualitative methodology includes a set of theoretical reflections on the migration of LGBTIQ+ subjects and the conjuncture of violence against the LGBTIQ+ population in Brazil, as well as semi-structured interviews with ten LGBTIQ+ immigrants and refugees living in the city of São Paulo. The analysis focuses on how spaces of violence can affect the migratory experience of these subjects. The results demonstrate that spaces of violence are mainly related to the institutional scope and the appropriation of physical and symbolic spaces in the city.

Keywords : Immigration; Refuge; LGBTIQ+; Spaces of Violence.
