The qualitative research interview cooperates with a qualitative content analysis, where the latter method is used to categorise perceptions in the interviews. In short the analysis discusses the interviewees perceptions of migrant women’s rights in connection to five of ten central capabilities as presented in the theory. Additionally, themes concerning the importance of social relationships, family, education, employment, freedom, safety and more are discussed as fundamental issues. The analysis shows perceptions of rights that measure different levels of provided capabilities and discusses them in relation to responsible actors. (Less)

Den kvalitativa forskningsintervjun samarbetar med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys, där den senare metoden används för att kategorisera uppfattningar av migrant kvinnors rättigheter i koppling till fem av tio centrala förmågor som presenteras i teorin. Ytterligare teman gällande vikten av sociala relationer, familj, utbildning, anställning, frihet, säkerhet och mer är diskuterade som fundamentala problem. Analysen visar uppfattningar av rättigheter som mäter olika nivåer av tillhandahållna förmågor och diskuterar dem i relation till ansvariga aktörer. (Less)
