Winner of the Bloomsbury and World History Association Diversity in World History First Monograph Prize Exploring the history of prostitution in Cape Town from 1868 to 1957, this book charts the transformation of the sex trade from societal and legal toleration to criminalization and abolition. Showing how this transformation to Cape Town's commercial sex industry did not solely occur in a vacuum, but also affected the Western Cape and southern Africa, Gonzalez-Stout shows how regional, international and imperial forces shaped the sex economy in a region undergoing colonization, warfare, racial stratification, urbanization and apartheid. Illuminating socially constructed ideas on morality that shaped the sex trade in Cape Town, this book shows how the selling of sex proved to be a vigorous economic force that remained tethered to racial and gender norms that defined moral boundaries. Feared and watched by government officials, women's organization, moral reformers, medical professionals, law enforcement and concerned citizens, it was also a commodified and contentious arena. Arguing that sexual anxieties were ultimately racial anxieties, Prostitution and Carnal Vigilance in Cape Town shows how this transformation was sustained by white supremacy and nationalism against a backdrop of wider exclusionary and segregationist measures, while marginalized sex workers continued to demonstrate resistance and agency in the face of moral policing and increasing surveillance.

Are women tricked into sex work? How much control do they have over their working conditions? Are sex workers able to leave if they want to? The answers to these and many other questions about the sex work industry can be found in this book. This two-year study by the Institute for Security Studies and the Sex Worker Education and Advocacy Task Force is the first complete survey and analysis of the sex work industry in a South African city, Cape Town. It analyses numbers, earnings, working conditions and various aspects of exploitation of both street-based and brothel-based sex workers, and makes recommendations on how exploitation of sex workers can be prevented. As human trafficking into prostitution is of concern both in South Africa and worldwide, the book examines and reports on the extent to which trafficking is a feature of the sex work industry in Cape Town.

Sugar Girls & Seamen illuminates the shadowy world of dockside prostitution in South Africa, focusing on the women of Cape Town and Durban who sell their hospitality to foreign sailors. Dockside "sugar girls" work at one of the busiest cultural intersections in the world. Through their continual interactions with foreign seamen, they become major traffickers in culture, ideas, languages, styles, goods, currencies, genes and diseases. Many learn the seamen's tongues, develop emotional relationships with them, have their babies and become entangled in vast webs of connection. In many ways, these South African mermaids are the ultimate cosmopolitans, the unsung sirens of globalisation. Based on fifteen months of research at the seamen's nightclubs, plus countless interviews with sugar girls, sailors, club owners, cabbies, bouncers and barmaids, this book provides a comprehensive account of dockside "romance" at the southern tip of Africa. Through stories, analysis and first-hand experiences, it reveals this gritty world in all its raw vitality and fragile humanity. Sugar Girls & Seamen is simultaneously racy and light, critical and profound.

Human trafficking has emerged as a major problem across the world. The three Baltic States have got their share whilst going through an adjustment period after the ending of the Soviet era and re-establishing their independence. A common feature was the lack of new work opportunities that hit women more than men in the transition to market economy. Women of ethnic minorities are also over represented among prostitutes and trafficked women. In general the lack of work opportunities for women has made many take the opportunity to work in the sex industry either at home or abroad. Some start voluntarily and some are decieved by traffickers with false promises of other work and later forced into commercial sex. From the migration viewpoint certain social and economic trends arguably contribute to the rise of irregular migration and trafficking. The first part of this book looks at the legal aspects of trafficking in women in the Baltic States whilst the second part looks at reports of the sociological research conducted in the Baltic States on this aspect.

Refiguring the Archive at once expresses cutting-edge debates on `the archive' in South Africa and internationally, and pushes the boundaries of those debates. It brings together prominent thinkers from a range of disciplines, mainly South Africans but a number from other countries. Traditionally archives have been seen as preserving memory and as holding the past. The contributors to this book question this orthodoxy, unfolding the ways in which archives construct, sanctify, and bury pasts. In his contribution, Jacques Derrida (an instantly recognisable name in intellectual discourse worldwide) shows how remembering can never be separated from forgetting, and argues that the archive is about the future rather than the past. Collectively the contributors demonstrate the degree to which thinking about archives is embracing new realities and new possibilities. The book expresses a confidence in claiming for archival discourse previously unentered terrains. It serves as an early manual for a time that has already begun.
