Description

Explore the profound impact of the Swedish model in this academic study by Routledge. In 1999, Sweden took a radical step by criminalising the purchase of sex while decriminalising its sale, setting itself apart from other European nations. This approach has since become a significant influence, with other countries proposing or adopting similar legislative frameworks. This book examines the real-world outcomes of these laws and the narratives used to justify them. By looking at the dynamics of Swedish sex work and the direct effects on the lives of sex workers, the text provides a detailed analysis of how legal shifts change social realities. It uses recent fieldwork to present a clear picture of how the Swedish model functions in practice. This is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals interested in legal, social, and medical sciences.
