Amidst ongoing allegations of inappropriate behavior and
trafficking during UN peacekeeping missions, this volume takes a
step back to analyze the post-war and peacekeeping contexts in
which prostitution flourishes. Using ethnographic research
conducted in Kosovo from 2011 to 2015, this book offers an
alternate understanding of the growth of the sex industry in the
wake of war. It features in-depth interviews with the diverse women
engaged in prostitution, with those facilitating it, and with
police, prosecutors, and gynecologists. Drawing on the perspectives
of women engaged in prostitution in the wake of war, this volume
argues that the depiction of these women as victims of trafficking
in the hegemonic discourse does more harm than good. Instead, it
outlines the complex set of circumstances and choices that emerge
in the context of a growing post-war sex economy. Extrapolating the
conclusions from the study of Kosovo, this book is a valuable
resources for researchers and practitioners studying the aftermath
of war in the Balkans and beyond, and researchers engaged with the
function of the UN and peacekeeping missions internationally.
