Wolfenden's Women

Více o knize

Focusing on the Wolfenden Committee's overlooked examination of prostitution, this sourcebook compiles interviews and critical analyses that reveal the complexities of opinions on the subject. While the Committee is often remembered for its stance on homosexuality, this work emphasizes that prostitution was its original focus. By restoring prostitution to the forefront of discussions about Britain’s progressive era, it challenges prevailing narratives and highlights significant evidence from outside London. This collection aims to foster important debates on the history of sexuality and societal norms in twentieth-century Britain.
