More than fifteen years have passed since the law regarding sex workers in New Zealand has changed and as a model it has been endorsed as best practice by international organisations, leading scholars and sex worker-led organisations. Yet in some corners, speculation is ongoing regarding its impacts on the ground. Written by an international group of experts, this ground-breaking collection provides the much-needed in-depth research into how decriminalisation is playing out in sex worker's lives and how different groups of sex workers are experiencing it, while uncovering the challenges and tensions that remains to be negotiated in this field. Using the evidence from New Zealand, it makes an invaluable contribution to the international debates regarding sex work laws and the global struggle to realise sex worker's rights.
