الهجرة غير الشرعية للمرأة الجزائرية بوصفها نموذجا للمقاومة النسوية : دراسة سوسيولوجية لظاهرة "الحراقات"

Abstract EN

In recent years Algerian women have witnessed major socio–cultural transformations, which have enabled them to undertake new roles and take part in their country’s development.

This has not, however, led to their liberation from the hegemony of the patriarchal social system which they continue to resist in a number of ways.

In this context, this study views illegal migration (al–harga), which some Algerian women began to undertake as an act of resistance, as a novel form of feminist expression–even in cases where it took on individualistic or family–based characters.

The motivations for the departure of these female illegal migrants are many, ranging among economic, cultural, and social factors.

They have participated however on the basis that illegal migration aims for a better life in another, more liberated society.
