DESCRIPTION:Lecture by: Prof Maria Cecilia Hwang\n\nInstitute for Gender\, 
 Sexuality\, and Feminist Studies (IGSF)\n\nThis talk compares the regional
  circulation across Asian global cities of independent women sex workers f
 rom the Philippines and the global mobility of their male clients\, who ar
 e mostly professional expatriates and business travelers from Global North
  countries. Based on a qualitative study conducted in Hong Kong and the Ph
 ilippines between 2010 and 2018\, this talk expands current theorizations 
 of global circuits by empirically revealing the asymmetries in the mobilit
 y of transnational professionals and transnational low-wage workers. It de
 monstrates the emergence of “unbound and bound spheres of globalization” i
 n which the formal circuits of professional expatriates and business trave
 lers are indeed unbound and global in scope while their low-wage counterpa
 rts in Asian global cities\, which includes Filipina sex workers\, are mor
 e than likely to only circulate within a bound “regional pocket of free tr
 avel” in Asia.\n
