    ENG: Sex, Love, and Migration complicates a narrative of women's exploitation as a feature of migration in the twenty-first century, to argue that women's mobility is marked not only by risks but also by personal and social transformation. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork spanning a decade (2002-2011), Alexia Bloch shows how women moving between the former Soviet Union and Turkey forged new forms of relationships in their households in Moldova, Ukraine, and Russia, but also in Istanbul, where they often worked for years on end. The lives and aspirations of post-Soviet migrant women employed in three spheres in Istanbul--sex work, the garment trade, and domestic work--are featured, challenging us to decouple images of women on the move from simple assumptions about danger, victimization, and trafficking.RUS: Исследование Алексии Блок выходит за рамки общепринятого представления об эксплуатации женщин как характерной черте миграции начала XXI века, в котором фигурируют молодые женщины из бедных стран, пересекающие границы, чтобы заниматься низкооплачиваемым и зачастую интимным трудом. Автор утверждает, что мобильность женщин связана не только с рисками, но и с личными и социальными преобразованиями, поскольку миграция в корне меняет эмоциональный мир и устремления женщин. Блок описывает, как с начала 1990-хгодов женщины пересекали границы бывшего Советского Союза, создавая новые формы интимности в своих семьях. В книге рассматривается жизнь постсоветских женщин-мигранток, занятых в трех различных сферах секс-работе, торговле одеждой и домашнем хозяйстве.
