Migration has transformed feminists‘ ideological conflict about the meaning of prostitution. From being a two-sided debate about whether ’sex work is work‘ or ‚violence against women‘, the discussion now must consider migration policies that favour ‚highly skilled‘, white-collar and technical professionals over those willing to take less prestigious jobs in the informal sector, including the sex industry.

Researchers working in the realm of migration and sex work and wishing to present a paper (15 minutes, followed by a 30 minutes discussion) are asked to send a title and an abstract till August 15 to: claudia.howald@unine.ch.
