Recenzii
This book offers insights to both the novice and rehearsed researcher as theoretical ideas stemming from the feminist 'sex wars' are broken down concisely, to offer a new perspective on understandings of sex work. Applying Butler's concept of 'livability', this book offers an alternative, hopeful and fresh analysis of the possibilities in the relationship between sex workers and frontline professionals. Discourses are unpacked and boldly criticised as concepts like 'partnership' and 'empowerment' are dissected. Kallock destabilises mainstream thinking about the place of sex work in society, provoking critical engagement with traditional ideas and thinking how service delivery to sex workers can improve.
A complex and compelling empirical analysis of how radical social activism has been co-opted into the neoliberal agenda. Weaving together theories of livability, performativity, and agency, Kallock's book is simultaneously sympathetic and damning in showing how frontline service providers reproduce the discursive and material frames that keep sex workers at the edge of political subjectivity.
Kallock's extensive research with service providers interrogates and critiques UK sex work policy at the frontline. This theoretically intriguing work reveals the challenges service projects face as they respond to sex workers' needs under conditions of criminalization, economic exclusion, and stigmatization. In so doing, Livable Intersections starkly illuminates how policies restrict sex workers' ability to both survive and flourish.
A wonderful, refreshing, engaging and important analysis and critique that does what it says it will do: re/frames the tired sex work debates and argues for a transformative, liveable ethico-political coalition of front line workers and sex workers towards a 'new ethos of sexual openness'.
