Die Kontrolle des kommerziellen Sex im 19. Jahrhundert war eine fast gesamt-europäische Verwaltungsinitiative. Die Stadt Brüssel bietet ein klassisches Beispiel und auch umfassendes Quellenmaterial, was es ermöglicht, die Geschichte des 'geschlossenen' Systems der Prostitution, das durch Kontrolle aufgebaut wurde, von ihrem Beginn im Jahre 1844 bis zu ihrem tatsächlichen Niedergang 1977 zu verfolgen. Eine umfassende Einsicht in die tägliche Realität und in die Identität der beteiligten Personen (Prostituierte und Bordellbesitzer) wird gewährt. Die Schlußfolgerung lautet, daß die Durchführung dieser Politik ihrem hohen Standard nie gerecht wurde. (KWübers.)... view less

'The 19th century regulation of commercial sex was a nearly all European municipal initiative. The city of Brussels offers a classic example as well as extensive source material, which has made it possible to trace the history of the closed 'system' of prostitution installed by regulation, from its beginnings in 1844 to its de facto downfall in 1877. A comprehensive view is given of its daily reality and of the identity of the people involved (prostitutes and brothel-keepers). The conclusion is that the implementation of this policy has never lived up to its high standards.' (author's abstract)... view less
