This article critically evaluates the theoretical and empirical literature on contemporary prostitution. Most research focuses
exclusively on street prostitution and female workers, with much less attention devoted to indoor prostitution, male and transgender
workers, customers, and managers. Drawing on the sparse literature available on these underexamined topics, the article demonstrates
how further research will yield a more nuanced and multifaceted understanding of contemporary prostitution. 相似文献

Until recently, prostitution was not a prominent public issue in the United States. Law and public policy were relatively settled. The past decade, however, has witnessed a growing debate over the sex trade and the growth of an organized campaign committed to expanding criminalization. A powerful moral crusade has been successful in reshaping American government policy toward sex work – enhancing penalties for existing offences and creating new crimes. Crusade organizations have advocated a strict abolitionist orientation toward all forms of commercialized sex, which are increasingly conflated with sex trafficking. This paper examines the impact of this movement on legal norms and government policies. I argue that the moral crusade, and its government allies, are responding to the growth of the sex industry in recent years and to fears of its normalization in American society. 相似文献

In the past two decades there has been little critical examination of the prevailing methods of controlling prostitution in
the United States. This article examines selected problems in the control of prostitution in the United States and critically
assesses three major alternatives to the prevailing policy of criminalization. Alternative approaches are evaluated using
the criteria of public preferences, efficient use of criminal justice resources, and harm reduction. One policy, involving
a dualistic approach, is found to be superior in satisfying these criteria.
