Description
Buying and Selling Power examines the implications of the complex identities of clients and prostitutes for their lives beyond prostitution. Drawing on the author's extensive fieldwork in urban Spain as well as on the work of queer theorists, Angie Hart explores the connections between the identities of clients and prostitutes and those of other sexual minorities, such as lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals.
