Book Description
This study addresses contemporary legislation regulating the Canadian sex industry, focusing on Bill C-36, the Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act. Bill C-36, described as a 'neo-abolitionist' approach to sex work, criminalizes the purchase of sexual services. Drawing on a critical analysis of Bill C-36, in addition to a content analysis of relevant news articles and interviews with sex workers and police in Halifax, the study examines how dominant representations of sex work are disseminated and resisted. I argue that sex work is constructed as a particular kind of social problem in Bill C-36 rendering certain policy responses inevitable. However, while Bill C-36 promulgates a (mis)representation of the sex industry which attempts to disregard sex workers' agency and capacity for self-determination, sex workers exhibit resistance against their 'victim status' and its associated stigma, challenging the power structures of society.

Sexual Regulation and the Law, A Canadian Perspective
Author: Richard Jochelson
Publisher: Demeter Press
ISBN: 1772582611
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
Does Canada need any more collections about legal regulation of sex and sexuality? Volumes exist dealing with sex work and pornographies. Certainly, volumes abound dealing with emerging sexualities in Canada and new sexual freedoms. This book seeks to do more than tell a story of broad generalities about the law. It forges the links between the history of law and modern iterations of judgments pertaining to that law. Hence the uncomfortable line between Victorian morality (often) and modern regulation, is thematically explored through the book. More modern iterations of sexual regulation in Canada are being deployed and, in this book, the authors explore the interplay between emerging digital technologies and legal regulation. Newer laws in Canada have been drafted to recognize that sexual expression can be a means of violence inherently, and thus an exploration of modern sexual digital expression and its emerging jurisprudence represent a new frontier in the regulation of sex and sexuality in Canada. We explore how legal regulation has responded to these new crimes.
