Police-Run Brothels in Republican Kunming

Breaking from practice in the rest of China, local officials in Republican Kunming selected an unusual strategy for controlling prostitution: police-managed brothel compounds called jiyuan. In the face of social resistance from many groups, the jiyuan subjected prostitutes to unusually high levels of surveillance and state intervention, as a local state bureaucracy was created to monitor the brothels. This phenomenon is theoretically significant because it illustrates how apparently “private” gender systems result in distinct local state formations
