Scott Anderson's "Prostitution and Sexual Autonomy" (in *Ethics*), though
it ultimately defends an abolitionist position, gives what I think is a
clear, fair, and charitable account of the other side (which he calls the
"normalization" view). I haven't used it in teaching, but my guess is
that students could handle it with significant guidance.

pro-prostitution or anti-regulation articles
Hi
For about a sophmore/junior Ethics class I am doing a unit on
prostitution. I have the exchange between Carole Pateman and Lars
Ericcson(sp?) and other excellent, theoretically solid abolitionist
articles, so I would like to find something a bit more sophisticated than
Ericcson's libertarian defense, and from a "feminist" perspective that
argues against regulation, and/or for prostitution. I'm familiar with some
of the material, but none of it seems philosophical or well argued.
any suggestions? I want to introduce somewhat of a debate in the unit.
Remember it's a sophmore level class- so nothing too dense.
thanks in advance,
Kathy Miriam
