Sažetak
Prostitution entails many controversies related to the best public policy. As an instance of morality politics, prostitution policy is influenced by ideology. In addition to different feminist discourses, dominant frames include sex work, threat to public safety, public order and morality, threat to public health, trafficking in human beings. While the policies in Europe differ, in the most European countries prostitution is not prohibited and sex workers are not directly criminalised. The exceptions are some former socialist/communist countries of the CEE and Central Asia, including Croatia, which criminalise engaging into prostition, justified by the protection of public order. This has significant negative impact on the rights of sex workers.
