Description
Book SynopsisWelcome to the European family! When East European countries joined the European Union under this banner after 1989, they agreed to the free movement of goods, services, capital, and persons. In this book, the author analyzes an important niche in this imagined European kinship: the traffic in women.
Trade Review"A compelling case for the role of Eastern European women in the creation of a 'new Europe.' [Thanks to the invisible labor of cleaners, housewives, sex workers, caregivers, and other women on the move, the map of Europe is being radically redrawn.] Parvulescu's substantial and sophisticated arguments are essential reading for scholars in European studies, gender studies, and transnational studies-as well as anyone interested in bold and boundary-pushing thought."
