Sex Work and Human Dignity sheds light on this enigma, by exploring how dignity-based discourses are used by those who write and talk about prostitution and also what role these discourses may play in shaping wider cultural understandings of sex work and sex workers. The book draws on political discourse theory and is international in its scope, with analysis of legal cases, textual sources, and empirical data gathered through interviews with activists from several different countries in the Global North and South. The book traces how the concept of dignity is used in a range of legal and political discourses on sex work and ultimately asks to what extent dignity-based discourses help to advance, or hinder, sex workers' social inclusion. This book will appeal to students and researchers interested in sex work and feminism, as well as those who study human dignity. Its interdisciplinary nature means it will appeal to those working in a range of disciplines, including law, sociology, philosophy, and political theory"--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Respect for persons $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Prostitution $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Prostitution $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Prostitutes $x Legal status, laws, etc. 650 0 $a Sex and law. 650 0 $a Feminist jurisprudence. 650 7 $a Feminist jurisprudence. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922778 650 7 $a Prostitutes $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01079548 650 7 $a Prostitution $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01079571 650 7 $a Prostitution $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01079573 650 7 $a Respect for persons $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01765578 650 7 $a Sex and law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114252 776 08 $i Online version: $a Cunningham, Stewart. $t Sex work and human dignity $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2021. $z 9780429355424 $w (DLC) 2020024215 830 0 $a Interdisciplinary studies in sex for sale. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021012304.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=02981CEC9F4311EBBB7E29A634ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
