The incidents have led to more bad publicity for this young country attempting to push itself closer to Europe. Ten beauties from the northern European countries of England, Wales, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Ireland, Switzerland, Finland, Denmark and Iceland complained to foreign diplomats of threats to their safety, and of poor food and accommodations after quitting the competition on September 3. The Kyiv Post quoted a Swedish journalist on September 4 as saying that “several of the contestants were forcibly taken from their rooms and forced to dance with their abductors.” The incident allegedly occurred the evening of September 2 when the girls were roused from their beds and told they should pre- pare themselves for an evening at a Kyiv casino and night club, the Red and Black. There they were forced to dance with strangers, which some have alluded to as gangster types. The next day the women failed to show up for a luncheon at the Provence restaurant. Viktor Pensky, press attaché for both the Miss Ukraine and the Miss Europe organizations, told The Roman Woronowycz Weekly that the norm was for the contestants to attend Miss Greece Isabelle Darras, who won the 1997 Miss (Continued on page 17) Miss Ukraine Natalya Nadtochey of Kharkiv.

  • Beyond Motherhood
    BEYOND MOTHERHOOD: UKRAINIAN FEMALE LABOR MIGRATION TO ITALY By Olena Fedyuk Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Professor Ayúe Ça÷lar Professor Prem Kumar Rajaram CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2011 Statement I hereby state that the thesis contains no materials accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. The thesis contains no materials previously written and/or published by another person, except where appropriate acknowledgment is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Budapest, May 31, 2011 CEU eTD Collection 2 Abstract Conceptualizing contemporary labor migration from Ukraine as a form of transnational, cross- generational familial project, this dissertation looks into the shifting practices of Ukrainian women’s migration to Italy and asks what kinds of ruptures, coping mechanisms and continuities were triggered and emerged in response to this transnational, feminized migration. Drawing on the fieldwork conducted among Ukrainian care- and domestic workers in Bologna and Naples, my research has indicated the centrality of motherhood in such familial migration projects led by women. To bring out dynamic role of motherhood in imagining, strategizing and carrying migration I introduce an analytical distinction between motherhood as a trope and motherhood as a situational practice. Such distinction between the two allows me to address the very mechanism of justifying, making sense of and dealing with the unequally distributed responsibilities within migrants transnational social fields, and to capture the emotion work and negotiations that shape these fields and the power struggles within them.
