Excellent- More about Social Work and Prostitution: Professional Approaches in Theory and Practice
Prostitution is a taboo fringe area of society that needs specific counseling and low-threshold services. This book provides an overview of the complexity of the field and presents theoretical and methodological approaches. It is a translation of the original German edition by Martin Albert and Julia Wege.

Prostitution is a highly stigmatized and poorly understood aspect of society, lacking comprehensive information and scientific understanding. Women who engage in prostitution face numerous challenges, including social prejudices, discrimination, and legal disadvantages. As a result, they require specialized counseling and accessible support services to address their unique needs. Social work has a longstanding history of assisting this vulnerable target group on a case-by-case basis, advocating for the rights and dignity of women.
From a professional social work perspective, this volume offers a comprehensive overview of the complexities within the field of prostitution. It explores theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches to understanding the experiences of women involved in this profession. The book is a translation of the original German edition, "Soziale Arbeit und Prostitution," published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, as part of Springer Nature in 2015. The translation was facilitated by artificial intelligence (machine translation through the service DeepL.com), followed by a human revision primarily focused on content to ensure stylistic differences from conventional translations.
Springer Nature is committed to advancing the development of tools and technologies to support authors in the publishing process. By publishing this book, Springer Nature aims to contribute to the understanding and awareness of prostitution, promoting empathy and compassion for the women who are affected by this societal issue.
