Sex, Work and Sex Work - Eroticizing Organization (Hardcover)

Is sex rife in your workplace? Probably more so than you think, according to this fascinating and controversial new book, Sex Work and Sex Work. This book argues not only that sexuality pervades every aspect of organizations, but also that organization pervades every aspect of our sexuality. This two-way conceptualization lends the book a two-part structure, covering firstly the ways in which organizational behaviour is shaped through issues such as
* male managers' experience of violence
* organizational constructions of sexual harassment
* professionals who work with sex offenders
* the organized practice of sado-masochism.
The second part of the book examines how sex is organized for commercial purposes, and considers sex work as an industry which can be analysed as any other, with important insights for normal organizing. This book is not afraid to explore key issues like the 'dark side' of sex, or prostitution as a complex and varied industry.
