| dc.description.abstract | The article argues that women’s involvement in smuggling in Ecuador’s border zones is not simply a national security issue but reflects a myriad of other human security features based on intersectional inequalities that have limited women’s access to paid work. The concept of “feminist critical human security” is advanced in the paper. Women smugglers are characterized as criminals by the discourse of border security authorities. However, smuggling has become an alternative to the lack of job opportunities in the border region. | en |
