Silvia Kontos traces the historical development of theories regarding heterosexual prostitution and those related to its political regulation in Germany. In so doing, she taps into current scientific and political debates in an excellent manner. Her profound analysis of those relationships connected to prostitution aside, she makes plausible her gender-theoretical normative position within current political negotiations about prostitution. She explores the paradoxes found in both prostitution discourse and governmental regulation through the connection between gender and government in her theoretical analysis.
