A cultural study of the traffic in women within the European Union. It builds upon the challenging situations that a staggering number of Eastern European women face today: at the two extreme poles of the law, the traffic in women in marriage and the traffic in women in coerced sex work, as well as a middle ground of women circulating as domestic servants, nannies, personal attendants, and entertainers in Western Europe and the UK.
