Issue Description

The sex trade is often considered one of the oldest in the world. However, it is still surrounded by a myriad of debates, issues and controversies. This book examines two key areas of prostitution and pornography, considering sex workers’ rights, whether prostitution should be decriminalised, young peoples’ access to porn and more. It also looks at commercial sexual exploitation, consent and sex trafficking.

The information inside comes from a variety of sources, including newspapers, magazines, government reports and charity groups; providing different perspectives on challenging topics. At the end of the book is a selection of activities that will encourage interaction, literacy, critical thinking and independent research. Content is accessible and engaging, tailored primarily towards the 14 to 18 age group.
