Prostitution Scandals in China presents an examination of media
coverage of prostitution-related scandals in contemporary China. It
demonstrates that the subject of prostitution is not only widely
debated, but also that these public discussions have ramifications
for some of the key social, legal and political issues affecting
citizens of the PRC. Further, this book shows how these public
discussions impact on issues as diverse as sexual exploitation,
civil rights, government corruption, child and youth protection,
policing abuses, and public health. In this book Elaine Jeffreys
highlights China's changing sexual behaviours in the context of
rapid social and economic change. Her work points to changes in the
nature of the PRC's prostitution controls flowing from media
exposure of policing and other abuses. It also illustrates the
emergence of new and legally based conceptions of rightful
citizenship in China today, such as children's rights, the right to
privacy, work, sex, and health, and the rights of citizens to claim
legal redress for losses and injuries experienced as the result of
unlawful acts by state personnel. Prostitution Scandals in China
will be of great interest to students and scholars across a range
of diverse fields including Chinese culture and society, gender
studies and media and communication studies.
