Description

Explore a significant period of British history with Prostitution and Victorian Social Reform from the Routledge Library Editions: Women's History series. This academic work examines the mid-nineteenth century system of regulated prostitution used in England and Wales. It investigates the Contagious Diseases Acts, which aimed to protect members of the armed forces from venereal diseases through the identification and detention of infected prostitutes. This text provides a deep look into the coercive nature of these laws and the social double standards of the era. It details how certain views allowed prostitution to continue by labeling the prostitute as a guardian of virtue. Readers will learn about the intense reactions from reformers who challenged these systemic practices. This book is an essential resource for those studying women's history, legal history, and the social structures of the Victorian era.
