Abstract

This article starts from the securitisation of trafficking in women for sexual exploitation in the European Union so as to rethink the relationship between security and citizenship. Critical security studies have only recently began to explore such relation, focusing on the securitisation of citizenship as well as its use in processes of securitisation, and identifying the constitution of the political community as the place where citizenship and security most clearly converge. The securitisation of trafficking, however, has three specificities that compel us to rethink the concept of citizenship as well as its relation to security: the transnational context in which it takes place, the importance of gender and sexuality in the processes of inclusion and exclusion it gives way to, and the existence of a transnational advocacy network in defence of sex workers� rights that uses the concept of citizenship to fight such securitisation. The article thus proposes the introduction of three innovations in the theoretical framework employed by critical security studies to analyse the relation between security and citizenship so as to accommodate the concrete case of trafficking: first, to situate such relation in the context of globalisation in which it operates; second, to draw from the concepts of gender and sexual citizenship, particularly the debate regarding their relation with the orientalist and imperialist practices of western liberal democracies, and, third, to recover the ambivalent dimension of citizenship stressing its emancipatory potential.
