Most discussions about approaches to regulating prostitution
occur at the national level—battles, for example, between
prohibition and legalization. In reality, however, the impact of
prostitution is felt most keenly at the local level, and it is
local measures that can have the greatest effect. This book
explores various approaches to regulating prostitution and other
sex work at the local level, analyzing their aims and outcomes
and offering guidance on designing effective regulations through
available policy instruments.
