However, these policies failed to consider ethnographic research on how children and families understood prostitution, and the role it played in their kinship systems and moral economies.

It reveals interesting contradictions between the seemingly homogeneous stereotypes of Vietnamese women's sexuality, on the one hand, and the multiplicity and fluidity of actual sexual practices in real-life contexts, on the other hand. First, the presence of a number of chaste migrant women in our study challenges the common stereotype of female migrants as hypersexual and promiscuous menaces on the loose. Second, we question the emphasis on women's material greed and instrumentalism in normative discourses about Vietnamese women's engagement in extramarital relationship. While for some women in our research, sexual liaisons outside marriage are indeed orchestrated for financial gains, for others, extramarital sex is principally sought as a form of self-actualisation or an exploration of sexual pleasure and freedom that is absent from their marriage.

The empirical results draw on a qualitative research design, using a combination of semi-structured interviews with prostitutes, policymakers and social workers, document analyses and dossier analyses. These methods indicate that although sexual exploitation exists, prostitution can certainly not, by definition, be equated with exploitation, coercion or male domination. Furthermore, in contradiction to the current mainstream European point of view, no support was offered by the respondents for the criminalisation of clients.

I argue that these experiences are inextricably linked to the continued subordination of women in contemporary society and to social norms regarding female sexuality.

Following Artaud, we examine how, because prostitution is both consciousness (idea, theory, representation) and body (sex, body, the physiology of the brain), it poses the problem of doubling. How can one apprehend both: (i) that one is the physical hyle (materiality) of thought and also (ii) remain aware of the contents of consciousness? Artaud claimed that only in ‘cruelty’ and the ‘scream’ could the mind and body be grasped at once.

Such a practice would, however, be very different from that which supporters of the putatively morally neutral model of prostitution have in mind and would depend for its plausibility on a comparison with other forms of caring for which payment is given.", "publicationTitle": "Journal of Applied Philosophy", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "January 1, 1999", "volume": "16", "issue": "2", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "139-150", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1111/1468-5930.00116", "citationKey": "marshallBodyshoppingCaseProstitution1999", "url": "http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1468-5930.00116/abstract", "accessDate": "2015-05-29T08:40:54Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "1468-5930", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "Bodyshopping", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "Wiley Online Library", "callNumber": "", "rights": "Society for Applied Philosophy, 1999", "extra": "", "tags": [], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2015-05-29T08:40:54Z", "dateModified": "2026-02-17T08:04:15Z" } }, { "key": "7QVSXK3Z", "version": 254, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 69782, "name": "Sex work research", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/sex_work_research", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/69782/items/7QVSXK3Z", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/sex_work_research/items/7QVSXK3Z", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 268229, "username": "dsonja", "name": "Sonja Dolinsek", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/dsonja", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Wolkowitz", "parsedDate": "2002-09-01", "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "7QVSXK3Z", "version": 254, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "The Social Relations of body Work", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Carol", "lastName": "Wolkowitz" } ], "abstractNote": "", "publicationTitle": "Work, Employment & Society", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "09/01/2002", "volume": "16", "issue": "3", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "497-510", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "Work Employment Society", "DOI": "10.1177/095001702762217452", "citationKey": "wolkowitzSocialRelationsBody2002", "url": "http://wes.sagepub.com/content/16/3/497", "accessDate": "2015-07-11T06:01:17Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "0950-0170, 1469-8722", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "wes.sagepub.com", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2015-07-11T06:01:17Z", "dateModified": "2026-02-17T08:04:15Z" } }, { "key": "PZU8SMCK", "version": 254, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 69782, "name": "Sex work research", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/sex_work_research", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/69782/items/PZU8SMCK", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/sex_work_research/items/PZU8SMCK", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 268229, "username": "dsonja", "name": "Sonja Dolinsek", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/dsonja", "type": "text/html" } } }, "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "PZU8SMCK", "version": 254, "itemType": "blogPost", "title": "Evaluating Human Rights Advocacy on Criminal Justice and Sex Work", "creators": [], "abstractNote": "Joseph J.

I aim to supplement the theoretical literature on dignity by providing an empirical study of how the concept is used in the specific context of legal discourse on sex work. I will analyse jurisprudence in which commercial sex was declared as incompatible with human dignity, focussing on the South African Constitutional Court case of S v Jordan and the Indian Supreme Court case of Budhadev Karmaskar v State of West Bengal. I will consider how these courts conceptualise dignity and argue that their conclusions on the undignified nature of sex work are predicated on particular sexual norms that privilege emotional and relational intimacy. In light of the stigma faced by sex workers I will explore how a discourse, proclaiming sex work as beneath human dignity, may impact on the way that sex workers are perceived and represented culturally, arguing that it reinforces stigma. I will go on to examine how sex workers subvert the notion that commercial sex is undignified, and resist stigma, by campaigning for the right to sell sex with dignity. I will demonstrate that an alternative legal approach to dignity and sex work is possible, where the two are not considered as inherently incompatible, concluding with thoughts on the risks and benefits of using ‘dignity talk’ in activism and campaigns for sex work law reform.", "publicationTitle": "International Journal for the Semiotics of Law - Revue internationale de Sémiotique juridique", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2015/06/29", "volume": "", "issue": "", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "1-21", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "Int J Semiot Law", "DOI": "10.1007/s11196-015-9434-9", "citationKey": "cunninghamReinforcingChallengingStigma2015", "url": "http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11196-015-9434-9", "accessDate": "2015-07-04T07:19:21Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "0952-8059, 1572-8722", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "Reinforcing or Challenging Stigma?", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "link.springer.com", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [ { "tag": "Applied Linguistics", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "Discourse theory", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "Fundamentals of Law", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "Human dignity", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "Laclau and Mouffe", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "Philosophy of Law", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "Prostitution", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "Theories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "sex work", "type": 1 }, { "tag": "stigma", "type": 1 } ], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2015-07-04T07:19:21Z", "dateModified": "2026-02-17T08:04:15Z" } }, { "key": "J74R5DU3", "version": 254, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 69782, "name": "Sex work research", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/sex_work_research", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/69782/items/J74R5DU3", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/sex_work_research/items/J74R5DU3", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 268229, "username": "dsonja", "name": "Sonja Dolinsek", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/dsonja", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Davidson", "parsedDate": "2002-05-01", "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "J74R5DU3", "version": 254, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "The Rights and Wrongs of Prostitution", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Julia O'Connell", "lastName": "Davidson" } ], "abstractNote": "This essay critically explores contemporary Euro-American feminist debate on prostitution.
