Te Encyclopedia of Prostitution and Sex Work is a reference work about prostitution past and
present, worldwide and especially, in the United States. With 341 entries on health, cultural
issues, migration, boom towns, legislation, technology, notable ?gures, literature, movies, and
more, this two-volume encyclopedia is a foremost resource devoted to this high-interest yet
sensitive topic. Most entries conclude with suggestions for further reading on the topic, including
books, articles, Web sites, and ?lms.
As prostitution is ubiquitous, the entry list is wide-ranging. Entries are extremely speci?c,
such as the Australian Mace Scandal or any entry devoted to a single person; others describe
abstract ideas such as “desire,” as they relate to commercial sex. Entries can discuss extreme
acceptance or persecution of prostitution or new approaches to regulation or fads in sexual
practices. Every attempt has been made to include such phenomena as devadasi and les grandes
horixontales, as well as the emergence of syphilis in Europe, among other notable topics. Some
historic eras or locales have been marked by phenomena related to prostitution, such as Ancient
Rome or Hong Kong, and they are included. Whether to include entries about speci?c nations
was hotly debated. Ultimately, it was judged that including only selected country entries would
create an impression that there was a greater degree of prostitution in some places than others,
without accounting for travel, migration, local custom, and attitudes toward overt and covert
sexual activity in general and commercial or transactional sexual activity in speci?c. Terefore,
regional entries (e.g., Southeast Asia or Western Europe) endeavor to o?er an overview, while
local entries (e.g., New York City or Bangkok) and historical entries (e.g., Habsburg Monarchy
or Renaissance) o?er greater depth in examining these topics.
Entries are organized alphabetically. An Alphabetical List of Entries as well as a Topical List
of Entries will help readers to quickly ?nd topics of interest. Items appearing in boldface print
within an entry are also entries in and of themselves. Cross-references are also made at the end
of the text of an entry with the standard “See also … ” listing. A comprehensive index provides
further access.
