abstract="In this article I describe the use of a participatory action research (PAR) methodology to address the problem of domestic violence among migrant farmworker (MFW) women in California. The article was generated from a variety of data sources used by the investigator over a 4-year period. These include the investigator's observations, field notes, informal conversations, written stories from the women, and interviews. The &quot;power of the collective&quot; is discussed as the development of a power base for battered MFW women to support and take care of one another. The concepts of liberation, enlightenment, and &quot;conscientizacion&quot; are used to describe the evolution of the collective.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
