Abstract

HURTADO SAA, Teodora. The Social Production of the Sex Market and of the Occupation of Sexual Workers in Spain. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2018, vol.54, n.2, pp.35-58. ISSN 0486-6525.  https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.461.

The intersectionality of gender, ethnicity/ race, class, place of origin, sexual orientation and practices intervenes in the modern social production of the sex market and in the construction of sex workers' occupation. Based on the case of Afro-Colombian women and other immigrant women working in the sex industry in Spain, this article provides an account of the previous situation, showing how these elements favor socio-occupational segmentation in the places where they work. To understand this reality, in the analysis we incorporate the perspective of the workers and of other social and institutional actors involved.

Keywords : intersectionality; social construction of the occupation and sex work markets; Afro-Colombian women; migration.
