Résumé
This paper we aim to analyze the different forms of intangible violence that are carried along with the human migration process. Thus, we focus our study on the displacement movements of Hispanic-Caribbean subjects to the United States during the second half of the twentieth century through a corpus of testimonial literature that belongs to three authors, one for each of the three Caribbean islands (Puerto Rico, Cuba and Dominican Republic). This way, the analysis of the exodus that is narrated in the literature of migration and exile may show the different forms of violence carried out on migrant bodies such as social exclusion, submission and hypersexualization.
