Women and Sex Work in Cambodia : Blood, sweat and tears, Paperback / softback Book

Women and Sex Work in Cambodia : Blood, sweat and tears Paperback / softback

Part of the ASAA Women in Asia Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Prostitution is strongly embedded in local cultural practices in Cambodia.

Based on extensive original research, this book explores the nature of prostitution in Cambodia, providing explanations of why the phenomenon is so widely tolerated.

It outlines the background of the French colonial period, with its filles malades, considers the contemporary legal framework, and analyses the motivations for sex work, examining in particular how women become locked into debt bondage.

Overall the book provides significant contributions to wider debates about sex work, sex trafficking and the constrained nature of women’s choices.
