This paper is a first approach to the legal case of Madaho's, which ended with the closure of the historical Mar del Plata´s cabaret and the prosecution of its owners for trafficking in women for the purpose of sexual exploitation. Madaho's was located in an exclusive area, close to the most expensive hotels in the seaside resort and was a well-known space for male sociability. Especially during the tourist season, it concentrated local and nearby sex workers attracted by the income they could obtain there. We analyze how this set of social relations was constructed as a “legal matter” using the language of trafficking in women, through the interpretations and interventions of rescuers, judges and prosecutors. From a perspective that understands law as a gender technology, we intend to examine how law works to fix a specific version of “trafficked women”. The methodological strategy is articulated through the analysis of different documentary sources of the judicial file, which allow us to access not only the interpretations of rescuers, judges and prosecutors, but also the voices of the women involved in this case. |

Este trabajo es un primer acercamiento a la causa judicial de Madaho´s, la cual terminó con el cierre del histórico cabaret marplatense y el procesamiento de sus dueños por trata de mujeres con fines de explotación sexual. Madaho´s estaba ubicado en una zona exclusiva, próximo a los hoteles más caros de la ciudad balnearia y constituía un espacio de sociabilidad masculino muy conocido. Especialmente durante la temporada turística, concentraba trabajadoras sexuales locales y de zonas próximas atraídas por los ingresos que allí se obtenían. Analizamos cómo esta trama de relaciones sociales se construyó como “cosa judiciable” utilizando el lenguaje de la trata de mujeres, a través de las interpretaciones e intervenciones de los/as expertos/as de rescate y los/as operadores/as judiciales. Desde una perspectiva que entiende al derecho como una tecnología de género, pretendemos examinar la forma en que el derecho trabaja para fijar una versión específica de las “mujeres víctimas de trata”. La estrategia metodológica se articula a través del análisis de distintas fuentes documentales del expediente judicial, las cuales nos permiten acceder no sólo a las interpretaciones de los/as operadores/as judiciales y los/as expertos/as de rescate, sino también a las voces de las mujeres involucradas en esta causa. Este trabalho é uma primeira abordagem ao caso legal de Madaho's, que culminou com o encerramento do histórico cabaré de Mar del Plata e a acusação de seus proprietários por tráfico de mulheres para fins de exploração sexual. Madaho's localizava-se em uma área exclusiva, próximo aos hotéis mais caros do balneário e era um conhecido espaço de sociabilidade masculina. Principalmente durante a temporada turística, concentrava trabalhadoras do sexo locais e de zonas cercanas, atraídas pelos rendimentos aí obtidos. Analisamos como essa teia de relações sociais foi construída como uma “coisa judicial” na linguagem do tráfico de mulheres, por meio de interpretações e intervenções de resgatadores e operadores judiciais. De uma perspectiva que entende o direito como uma tecnologia de gênero, pretendemos examinar a forma como a lei funciona para fixar uma versão específica de “mulheres vítimas de tráfico”. A estratégia metodológica articula-se através da análise de diferentes fontes documentais do processo judicial, que nos permitem ter acesso não só às interpretações dos operadores judiciais e dos operadores de resgate, mas também às vozes das mulheres envolvidas nesta causa.
