Back from “the Other Side”: The Post-deportee Life of Nigerian Migrant Sex Workers
2018
The chapter sheds ethnographic light on the post-deportee phase among Nigerian sex-worker migrants. Scholars have previously pointed to the ways in which anti-trafficking efforts unwittingly support the deportation of migrant sex-workers under the guise of securing women’s protection. They further reveal how the interventions that take place in the name of protecting women migrants often complicate the women’s situation, or even work against their interests. The ethnographic fieldwork, on which this chapter is based, extends these insights by shedding light on the particular gendered aspects of this post-deportee phase of migratory trajectories, practices, and policies.
