In the past two decades, feminist politics on prostitution has
become more polarised and ideological. On the one hand, those on
the radical spectrum of feminist politics have fought long and hard
to criminalise sex purchase with the intention of ultimately
abolishing prostitution. Other feminists have lobbied the state to
recognise and institutionalise sex workers' human rights. The
collection is both a critical intervention in and a re-orientation
of the schism in contemporary feminist prostitution politics.
Contributors will use this schism as a platform from which to
challenge current debates, and 'think' an alternative sex
worker-centred politics for social justice. By placing sex workers'
lived experiences of prostitution at the centre of the
conversation, the book rejects the hegemony of neo-abolitionism as
the solution to the 'problem' of sex work. The book brings
international, trans-disciplinary scholars together to address a
rights-based agenda for sex work law and policy and consequently
for sex workers' lives. This collection offers an invaluable
resource on the subject of how sex workers experience injustices
and how we can mitigate this globally through a transformative
vision of social justice.
