Формат: PDF
Размер: 42 Мб
Язык: английский / English
The past fifty years are conventionally understood to have witnessed an uninterrupted expansion of sexual rights and liberties in the United States. This state-of-the-art collection tells a different story: while progress has been made in marriage equality, reproductive rights, access to birth control, and other areas, government and civil society are waging a war on stigmatized sex by means of law, surveillance, and social control. The contributors document the history and operation of cex offender registries and the criminalization of HIV, as well as highly punitive measures against cex work that do more to harm women than to combat human trafficking.
