摘要

本文以参与观察、大量非正式谈话和十次半结构化访谈为基础,探讨了拉美女性移民经土耳其流向欧洲的复杂性。通过分析有关她们的生活故事、与 "人贩子 "的互动、在伊斯坦布尔的经历以及到达目的地的困难等人种学数据,本文解构了有关人口贩运和性工作的主流观点。她们的叙述颠覆了主流话语,主流话语将国际移民同质化,将其归入机构类别、预先确定的经历和主观化的本体论。抵达土耳其后,不可预见的情况打断了她们之前的计划,将她们限制在土耳其边界内,在那里寻找生存和继续迁移的手段变得极具挑战性。同时,她们还必须应对内部障碍,包括性别关系、基于性别的暴力以及社会文化、语言、经济、政治和立法方面的障碍,这些障碍加剧了不稳定性和风险。这些旅途可能会与性工作纠缠在一起,或被诱导,或独立从事性工作,目的是反对固定的边境制度。尽管遭受暴力和虐待,但这些妇女在面对陌生和充满敌意的环境时,仍不断就自己的主体性进行谈判,顽强地表达主观能动性和集体能动性,帮助她们生存下来,并追求自己的人生目标。

Latin American female migrants’ negotiation of sex work, international borders and internal barriers in Istanbul
Based on participant observation, numerous informal conversations and ten semi-structured interviews, this paper explores the complexities of Latin American female migrants’ mobility towards Europe via Turkey. By analyzing ethnographic data accounting for their life stories, interactions with ‘traffickers’, experiences in Istanbul, and the difficulties to reach their destinations, it deconstructs dominant perspectives about human trafficking and sex work. Their narratives dislocate mainstream discourses that homogenize international migration under institutional categories, predetermined experiences and subjectivized ontologies. Upon arrival, unforeseen circumstances truncated previous plans, encapsulating them within Turkish borders where finding means to survive and continue moving turned challenging. Meanwhile, they must deal with internal barriers, including gender relations, gender-based violence and sociocultural, linguistic, economic, political and legislative hindrances that exacerbate precarity and risks. These journeys can become entangled with sex work, either induced or independently exercised with the intention of opposing immobilizing border regimes. Despite exposure to violence and abuse, these women continuously negotiate their own subjectivities, while dealing with unfamiliar and hostile settings, demonstrating tenacious expressions of subjective and collective agency that assist them in surviving and pursuing their life projects.
