This article shows how the global sexual labor market is consolidated through of the mobilization of people (migration and tourism) and the indiscriminate trade of the merchandise-body and the service-sex. To this end, the author articulates some of the main theories of the sociology of globalization, maintaining as an axis the proposals of transnationalism, with other elements of feminist economics, and its own deliberations made from the observation and analysis of empirical information: conversations with sex workers in Quito and data collected through web pages of two spaces where sex work is carried out in Quito and Bogotá.
