Cosmopolitan Sex Workers is a groundbreaking look into the phenomenon of non-trafficked women who migrate from one global city to another to perform paid sexual labor in Southeast Asia
Through a new, innovative framework, Christine B.N
Chin shows that as neoliberal economic restructuring processes create pathways connecting major cities throughout the world, competition and collaboration between cities creates new avenues for the movement of people, services and goods
Loosely organized networks of migrant labor grow in tandem with professional-managerial classes, and sex workers migrate to different parts of cities, depending on the location of the clientele to which they cater
But while global cities create economic opportunities for migrants (and depend on the labor they provide) , states react with new forms of securitization and surveillance
As a result, migrants must negotiate between appropriating and subverting the ideas that inform global economic restructuring
Chin argues that migration allows women to develop intercultural skills that help them to make these negotiations
Cosmopolitan Sex Workers is innovative not only in its focus on non-trafficked women, but in its analysis of the complex relationship between global economic processes and migration for sex work

Credit, Fashion, Sex: Economies of Regard in Old Regime France
In Old Regime France credit was both a central part of economic exchange and a crucial concept for explaining dynamics of influence and power in all spheres of life
Contemporaries used the term "credit" to describe reputation and the currency it provided in court politics, literary production, religion, and commerce
Moving beyond Pierre Bourdieu's theorization of capital, this book establishes credit as a key matrix through which French men and women perceived their world
As Clare Haru Crowston demonstrates, credit unveils the personal character of market transactions, the unequal yet reciprocal ties binding society, and the hidden mechanisms of political power
Credit economies constituted "economies of regard" in which reputation depended on embodied performances of credibility
Crowston explores the role of fashionable appearances and sexual desire in leveraging credit and reconstructs women's vigorous participation in its gray markets
The scandalous relationship between Queen Marie-Antoinette and fashion merchant Rose Bertin epitomizes the vertical loyalties and deep social divides of the credit regime and its increasingly urgent political stakes.
