Sex Work and Human Dignity
The notion of human dignity is frequently, yet enigmatically, invoked in legal and political debates on sex work, where many people use it without much elaboration on exactly what they mean by it. Sex Work and Human Dignity: Law, Politics and Discourse sheds light on this enigma, by exploring how dignity-based discourses are used by those who write and talk about prostitution and also what role these discourses may play in shaping wider cultural …
Hard Protection through Soft Courts? Non-Refoulement before the United Nations Treaty Bodies
This Article comparatively analyses how the prohibition of refoulement is interpreted by United Nations Treaty Bodies (UNTBs) in their individual decision-making, where we suggest they act as “soft courts.” It asks whether UNTBs break ranks with or follow the interpretations of non-refoulement of the European Court of Human Rights. This investigation is warranted because non-refoulement is the single most salient issue that has attracted individu…

Drawing on the largest study of the United Kingdom online market in sexual labour to date, this article examines the legal and regulatory consequences as aspects of sex work increasingly take place within an online environment.

The Conservative Century
Conservatism studies have been in vogue since at least the mid-1990s, but the vast majority of contributing authors have limited their examinations to the post-1945 period. Within those studies, the South has garnered the lion's share of regional attention. Gregory L. Schneider offers something relatively different in The Conservative Century. Rather than focus exclusively on the origins of conservative Republican political power, usually dated t…
