While no countries treat the selling of sexual services exactly like other businesses, studies of the sale and purchase of sexual services among consenting adults show an amazing variation in legal strategies governing the activity, ranging from full criminalization, to partial decriminalization, to full decriminalization. Papers critically examining laws and practices at the national, provincial/state and municipal levels directed toward the control of sellers, buyers, and third parties the sex industry are welcome. We are also interested in receiving papers that discuss the consequences of such regulations and practices for people involved in the sex industry.
