This book brings together literature, empirical research findings
from two projects, and policy analysis to examine how some forces
in England have adopted the approach of treating crimes against sex
workers as hate crimes. This book identifies some of the benefits
of the hate crime approach to crimes against sex workers, both
operationally and for some of the victims of crime. The authors
argue that the hate crime approach should not be seen as an
alternative to decriminalisation of sex work but can provide a
pathway to achieving more sensitive but robust policing of crimes
against sex workers and support in accessing justice through the
criminal justice system. They also examine the broader context of
hate crime policy and scholarship as they debate the relevance,
problems and merits of the sex work hate crime model. The book
provides another dimension to current theoretical and policy
debates about widening definitions and law around hate crime to
include other groups beyond existing protected characteristics.
