The legal regulation of gender and sexuality has undergone dramatic
changes throughout Europe in the last 40 years and this has shaped
what it means to be a European citizen. Drawing on a range of
interdisciplinary research, this book uses the discourses around
current European sexual politics as an entry point to interrogate
how, and with what effect, the EU and its Member States harness
issues of gender and sexuality to support issues of higher
political importance. It takes recent and ongoing political debates
and legislative changes around prostitution and sexual assault as a
focus. Using four national case studies: Poland, Germany, Sweden
and Italy it illuminates how the EU's desire for increased
harmonisation across the Union around gender and sexuality norms
and values operates differently and with specific effects across
Member States. The book's structure provides a detailed map of how
and why contemporary European sexual politics is changing, and how
this contributes to establishing European norms and values in
developments in law and policy around prostitution and sexual
assault. By examining how and why the EU and its Member States
implement their policies in these two policy areas we can begin to
illuminate how contemporary European sexual politics serve some
groups' interests while marginalizing 'Others'.
