[pt] Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo compreender e analisar a convivência da prostituta com sua família e seu meio social. A família é tratada por essas mulheres como um meio que deve ser vivido a parte da prostituição, um mundo de valores morais, no qual a mulher de família nada tem a ver com prostituta. Com a finalidade de investigar esse fenômeno, foram entrevistadas dez mulheres com filhos que trabalham na Vila Mimosa, zona de baixo meretrício da zona norte do Rio de Janeiro. As entrevistas foram analisadas através da metodologia qualitativa e foram elaboradas categorias com a finalidade de sistematizar e melhorar a compreensão dos objetivos colocados pela pesquisa. Revelaram-se nos resultados as relações sociais que estabeleceram na família, no trabalho e na comunidade; o cotidiano no meio prostitucional; as questões relacionadas à sua família de origem; e a dedicação com os filhos. A base teórica utilizada neste trabalho envolveu pesquisas e literaturas interdisciplinares que abordassem o tema, bem como autobiografia de mulheres que não exercem mais a profissão. Como base teórica foi feito um estudo sob o histórico da prostituição, a Vila Mimosa como exemplo de luta e perseverança do meio prostitucional, as identidades e os estereótipos vividos pela profissional do sexo, vivência com clientes e a ambiguidade entre a mulher da rua e a mulher de família. / [en] This research aimed to understand and analyze the prostitute s relationship with her family and social setting. These women treat their families as a setting to be lived apart from prostitution, as a world of moral values in which the family woman bears no likeness to the prostitute. To investigate this phenomenon, interviews were conducted with ten women with children who work in Vila Mimosa, a lower-class meretricious zone. To analyze the interviews, the qualitative methodology was adopted and categories were elaborated to systematize and improve the understanding of the objectives set forth in the research. The results revealed the social relations established in the family, at the work environment and inside the community; the daily life of prostitution; the questions related to their families of origin; and the dedication extended to the children. The theoretical basis adopted in this study comprised interdisciplinary research and literature on the subject, as well as the autobiographies of women who are no longer engaged in prostitution. This research addressed prostitution from its beginnings to current times, Vila Mimosa as an example of its struggle and perseverance, the identities and stereotypes lived by the sex professional, their interaction with clients, and the ambiguity between the street woman and the family woman.

Para respondê-la, foram realizados dois levantamentos dos locais de prostituição na cidade, nos anos de 2013 e 2016, envolvendo a aplicação de 115 questionários. A partir desse levantamento, foi possível identificar três locais de prostituição utilizados por mulheres de baixa renda como as boates, bares e ruas específicas da cidade. A identificação das mulheres mães que exerciam a prostituição possibilitou a criação de vínculos durante as observações de campo e a realização de 12 entrevistas em profundidade. A inteligibilidade do fenômeno foi possível por meio da análise das entrevistas conforme metodologia de Silva e Silva (2016). As redes semânticas de sentidos do discurso das mulheres mães que exercem a prostituição na cidade de Ponta Grossa permitem afirmar que apesar de imperar a dicotomia das figuras de mãe e da prostituta, inclusive no imaginário das próprias prostitutas, esta é fruto do discurso hegemônico. As práticas simultâneas da maternagem e da atividade comercial sexual desenvolvidas pelas mulheres entrevistadas elucidam estratégias de ações complementares e interdependentes que fundem a identidade materna à da prostituta. Dessa forma, elas também evidenciam a constituição de um espaço relacional em que o público e o privado não estão opostos e dicotomizados. / This research has as central question: how are the spatialities of prostitutes women established in the practice of maternity, in the city of Ponta Grossa, Paraná? For respond to it, two surveys of the prostitution sites in the city were made, in the years 2013 and 2016, involving the application of 115 questionnaires. From this survey, it was possible to identify three places of prostitution used by low-income women, such as nightclubs, bars and specific streets of the city. The identification of mothers women who were carry out the prostitution has allowed the creation of bonds during the field observations and conduct 12 in-depth interviews. The intelligibility of the phenomenon was made possible through the analysis of the interviews according to Silva e Silva's methodology (2016). The semantic networks of the discourses of mother’s women who practice the prostitution in the city of Ponta Grossa make it possible to affirm that despite the dichotomy between the figures of the mother and the prostitute rules, even in the imagination of the prostitutes themselves, this is the result of the hegemonic discourse. The simultaneous practices of mothering and commercial sexual activity developed by the women interviewed elucidate strategies of complementary and interdependent actions that fuse the maternal identity to the prostitute identify. Thus, they also evidence the constitution of a relational space in which the public and the private are not opposed and dichotomized.

This goal will be pursued by means of a broad historical foreshortening, describing the development of prostitution in the Western world and, more deeply, the history of this phenomenon in the national scenario, which will allow us to understand it’s uniqueness. We will analyze the confrontation politics currently adopted by Westen countries, paying attention to both the benefits and the flaws of each one of them. We will also study the philosophical bases of the bills in progress in the National Congress. The main objective is not to indicate which is the best model, or the solution to this question, which has tormented humanity for millennia, but to allow a deep understanding of all the issues involved in this complex phenomenon / O presente trabalho tem como objetivo analisar a problemática da prostituição de mulheres, a partir de seu significado histórico e filosófico, buscando contribuir para o debate que se formou, recentemente, sobre o tema, no Poder Legislativo e na sociedade civil brasileira. Esse objetivo será perseguido por meio de um amplo escorço histórico, descrevendo o desenvolvimento da prostituição no mundo ocidental e, mais detidamente, a história desse fenômeno no cenário nacional, o que nos permitirá compreender sua singularidade. Analisaremos as políticas de enfrentamento atualmente adotadas pelos países ocidentais, dando atenção tanto aos benefícios quanto aos malefícios de cada uma delas. Estudaremos ainda as bases filosóficas dos Projetos de Lei em trâmite no Congresso Nacional.

Na presente Dissertação, buscamos compreender o fenômeno michê e como ele se apresenta no contexto de vida pós-moderno. Com este intento, contextualizamos a pós-modernidade e as expressões da sexualidade, gênero e masculinidades no cenário atual por considerarmos serem discussões fundamentais para se refletir acerca da prostituição masculina. Apoiadas nesse arcabouço teórico é que nos propusemos a pesquisar o fenômeno michê: seus representantes, suas histórias de vida e a forma como significam sua atuação no universo prostitucional. Apropriamo-nos do referencial metodológico fenomenológico e da perspectiva merleau-pontyana para guiar nossa análise e discussão. Definimos entrevistar dez homens maiores de 18 anos que atuam ou já atuaram como michê. Aplicamos o questionário econômico da ABEP para o perfil socioeconômico de cada um deles e posteriormente realizamos a entrevista de história de vida, norteada por uma única questão: Peço-lhe que me conte sua história de vida, a partir de sua infância até o momento que passou à prática de michê. As entrevistas foram se desdobrando em sentidos e significados próprios de cada colaborador e buscamos acessar a intencionalidade dos relatos, o que é da ordem da experiência vivida pelos colaboradores e não do que pode ser inferido pelo pesquisador. A análise se deu pela identificação de unidades de significado, as quais se configuraram como: 1) Nos horizontes da família; 2) Ingresso no mundo vida da prostituição; 3) Dinâmica dos programas e 4) Perspectivas para o futuro. A partir dessas unidades de significado, nos foi possível conhecer a história de vida de cada um dos colaboradores, o momento em que a prostituição passou a fazer parte de sua vida e o significado dessa práxis para cada um deles. Para a maior parte dos michês colaboradores desta pesquisa, a prostituição carrega motivações e significados subjetivos que vão além da justificativa pela necessidade financeira. Na análise compreensiva dos relatos, duas questões se destacaram: i) nove dos dez michês entrevistados atende à clientela masculina (em sua maior parte homens casados com mulheres) e muitos trazem relatos de práxis homofóbicas; e ii) cinco dos colaboradores relatou experiências de violência sexual na infância ou adolescência (ainda que dois desses não percebam tal experiência como violenta). Informações importantes para os horizontes da presente pesquisa, para a discussão das questões de sexo e gênero, as quais necessitam ser problematizadas desde a infância, inclusive dentro da grade curricular, para que as crianças e adolescentes saibam identificar as situações de abuso e exploração sexual e para que se tornem adultos menos homofóbicos, adultos que possam assumir o seu desejo sexual sem medo de estar desviando das normas implícitas de uma sociedade. / In the present Dissertation, we seek to understand the hustler phenomenon and how it is experienced in post-modern days. For such, we contextualize post-modernity and the expressions of sexuality, gender and masculinities in the present scenario once we consider them to be basic discussions underlying ones reflection upon male prostitution. Supported by the theoretical framework here presented we undertook to investigate the hustler phenomenon, their representatives, their life stories and the meaning they attribute to their practice in the prostitucional universe. We used the phenomenological method and the perspective of Merleau-Ponty to guide our discussion and analysis. We defined to interview ten men over 18 yr. old who have been working or have worked as a hustler. We also applied the ABEP economic questionnaire to find out each one of these mens socioeconomic profile and then carried out the life history interview, triggered by the prompt: Please tell me your life story, since childhood to the moment you started as a hustler. From that point on, the interviews developed into the meanings attributed by each collaborator individually, with our focus on grasping the intentionality underlying their reports, which regards the own collaborators experiences, and not the researchers possible inferences. The analyses were carried out through the identification of four units of meaning: 1) Family Horizons; 2) Entrance into prostitution; 3) The dynamics of programs and 4) Prospects for the future. Based on these units of meanings we could learn about these mens life story, the moment prostitution became a part of their life and the meaning each one of them attributes to that praxis. For most of the hustler collaborators in this study, prostitution bears meanings that go beyond mere financial needs. In our comprehensive analyses of the reports, two issues emerged: i) nine out of the ten hustlers interviewed have a male clientele (in their majority men married to women) with many mentioning homophobic practices; and ii) five of the collaborators reported childhood and/or adolescence sexual abuse (although two of them dont see such experiences as abuse). We feel such information is valuable to the horizons of this research, for the discussion on the sex x gender issues we feel need to be problematized from childhood, included in school curricula, so that children and adolescents are able to identify sexual abuse and exploitation and can, thus, grow to become less homophobic adults who can deal with their sexual desire without the fear of deviating from the implicit norms of society.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a key destination and transit country for human trafficking. Human trafficking is a complex international criminal enterprise that supplies humans for many different forms of forced labour and commercial sexual exploitation. It has devastating effects on its victims. Theories suggest that human trafficking is strongly linked to migration, which would explain why it has become an urgent issue for the UAE, since its massive influx of migrants seeking a better life and economic circumstances, are habitually lured to the UAE and subjected to exploitation by traffickers. It is a situation that in recent years has tarnished the UAE's reputation to the international community and its wealthy investors. It is for all of these reasons that this thesis is concerned with human trafficking in the UAE, with a special focus on the trafficking of women, as well as the legal mechanisms and initiatives created to combat this scourge. At the heart of this investigation is Federal Law No. 51 which marked a pivotal moment for the UAE, as it was a law specifically designed to address trafficking on its territory. However, as with laws drafted by the international community, there exist difficulties with how trafficking should be construed, and with how traffickers and trafficked victims should be treated in order to effectively eliminate this crime. Ultimately, the research highlights the importance and benefits of a victim-centred human rights based approach, as opposed to the pervasive crime control one, which includes ensuring that victims are genuinely protected and fully rehabilitated to re-enter society. In addition, the research provides crucial insights from Islamic law and principles that raise significant implications for understanding how the trafficking in women should be conceptualised and dealt with in modern-day Muslim societies such as the UAE.

O turismo é um fenômeno social e econômico que possibilita a reprodução do capital por meio do uso e da apropriação do espaço, no sentido de que é através do consumo do lugar que a atividade turística se consolida. A mercantilização do lugar é parte do processo de reprodução do capital e, neste sentido, os lugares são ressignificados. Nesta pesquisa, buscamos entender como ocorreu o desenvolvimento do turismo sexual e sua consolidação no Nordeste do Brasil. No geral, nos países periféricos do sistema capitalista, o turismo sexual vem encontrando um amplo espaço para seu desenvolvimento, onde viajantes de países economicamente mais desenvolvidos buscam encontrar um atrativo mercado sexual. Neste caso, esta pesquisa trata o turismo sexual como um conceito caracterizado pela viagem motivada pela busca de sexo. Em nosso estudo específico busca entender como e porquê o Nordeste brasileiro tornou-se locus deste tipo de turismo. O turismo sexual tem se desenvolvido pela correlação de diversos fatores, de ordem socioeconômica, histórica e cultural. Nessa pesquisa, buscamos abordar cada um desses fatores, a fim de encontrar um ponto de convergência que nos apontasse o porquê de o Nordeste brasileiro ter sido inserido na geografia do turismo sexual. A partir da década de 1990, na região Nordeste, algumas cidades começaram a receber incentivos para maior desenvolvimento do turismo conhecido como sol e praia. Nesse momento, políticas e planos estruturaram o mercado de turismo na região, fazendo com que essas cidades recebessem maiores investimentos em infraestrutura, a fim de incrementar seu potencial turístico. Como consequência, o segmento do turismo sexual também começou a crescer nessas cidades. De uma forma menos estruturada da presente em cidades tailandesas, por exemplo, as cidades nordestinas terminaram por se inserir na geografia do turismo sexual internacional. / Tourism is a social and economic phenomenon that provides the reproduction of capital through the use and appropriation of space, for it is through the consumption of a place that touristic activities are consolidated. The commodification of the place is part of the process of reproduction of capital, and thus places are resignified. For this research, it was sought to understand how does sex tourism develops and consolidates in the Northeast of Brazil. Generally, sex tourism has found a broad space for its development within the countries on the periphery of capitalism, in which travelers from developed countries seek to find an attractive sex market. In this case, this research adresses sex tourism as a concept, defined by a trip motivated by the search for sex. Our particular study aims to understand how and why the Brazilian Northeast has become a locus for this type of tourism. Sex tourism has been developing by the correlation of several factors regarding socio-economic, historical and cultural order. In this research, it was sought to address each of these factors, in order to find a point of convergence that might lead us to the reason why Brazilian Northeast has been included in the geography of sex tourism. From the early 90\'s, in the northeastern region, some cities had began to receive financial incentives for the further development of a tourism known as \"sun and beach\". By that moment, policies and plans had structured tourism market in that area, through providing those cities greater investments in infrastructure, in order to increase their touristic potential. As consequence, the segment of the sex tourism had simultaneously began to grow within those cities. In a less structured way than what is seen in Thai cities, Northeastern cities, as a matter of fact, ended up being a part of international sex tourism geography.

This thesis focuses on trafficking in human beings, particularly in women, to Turkey after the dissolution of Soviet Union. The study analyses legal responses and their reflections on Turkey's policy making mechanism to find a comprehensive and victim-oriented anti-trafficking strategy at two levels, international and national. The research is structured into eight chapters, proceeding from the general background of human trafficking, particularly female trafficking, to the development of the framework of anti-trafficking measures in Turkey's domestic structure. From the literature review it is found that human trafficking is a multi-faceted problem, which needs a more comprehensive approach to tackle it. Despite the recognition of all forms of human trafficking, trafficking for sexual exploitation in Turkey of female victims from former Soviet republics is the focus of this study. While doing so, the study analyses and compares the legal, political, and administrative differences between two specific periods: from the dissolution of the Soviet Union to 2002; and from 2002 to 2016. In the first period, the study focuses on the political and sociological transformations' effects on trafficking in women as push factors in source countries, and the domestic responses of Turkey in prevention, prosecution, and protection. After these analyses, the study examines how the political, regional, and international aspirations of the AKP governments affect the transformation of legal measures on human trafficking in the Turkish legal system. In addition to these analyses and criticisms, the study utilizes the relevant parts of the US Department of State Trafficking Reports and EU Regular and Progress Reports to highlight the positive and negative sides of the domestic transformation of Turkey's anti-trafficking strategy. Concerning the development of Turkey's anti-trafficking measures, this study explores what could be changed for a comprehensive anti-trafficking model for Turkey as the future of their anti-trafficking strategy. The study critically analyses previous and current legal, political, and social mistakes against victims in the processes from identification to protection, to build up a preventative and victim-oriented strategy by means of legal instruments and their effects on political measures. The study highlights the weaknesses, problems, and deficiencies to demonstrate the current situation, and also evaluates the influences of international instruments on Turkey's domestic legal and political structures.

From the 1920s until the 1950s, brothers, Sam and Rosario Maceo, ran an influential crime family in Galveston, Texas. The brothers’ success was largely due to Galveston’s transient population, the turbulent history of the island, and the resulting economic decline experienced at the turn of the 20th century. Their success began during Prohibition, when they opened their first club. The establishment offered bootlegged liquor, fine dining, and first class entertainment. After Prohibition, the brothers continued to build an empire on the island through similar clubs, without much opposition from the locals. However, after being suspected of involvement in a drug smuggling ring, the Maceos were placed under scrutiny from outside law enforcement agencies. Through persistent investigations, the Texas Rangers finally shut down the rackets in Galveston in 1957. Despite their influence through the first half of the 20th century, on the island and off the island, their story is largely missing from the current literature.

O centro de organização da vida privada oitocentista é a família, instituição que recebe importante destaque na Comédie humaine, de Honoré de Balzac. No conjunto que forma essa obra, encontramos diferentes estruturas familiares, desde a elementar, exemplo mais tradicional de família, composta por pai, mãe e filhos, até as desordenadas, como é o caso dos Gobseck, objeto de estudo dessa dissertação. A família Gobseck é formada por duas cortesãs e um usurário. Sarah é mãe de Esther e sobrinha-neta de Jean-Esther van Gobseck. Nos episódios de suas vidas, narrados em alguns livros de Balzac, não percebemos momentos de interação e de convivência entre os três, contudo alguns traços fazem com que a influência do sangue prevaleça em distintos momentos da vida de cada um. Considerando, entre outros fatores, a constituição não tradicional dessa família, cujos componentes exercem profissões reprováveis pela sociedade, a falta de convívio e a ambição por dinheiro dos três, temos o objetivo de observar qual é o lugar dessa família na sociedade criada pelo escritor, qual o seu papel social em um mundo governado pelas leis do capital e quais as características individuais que fazem com que se aproximem ou se afastem. / The hub of the organisation of private life in the 1800s is the family, an institution which receives great distinction in the Comédie humaine, by Honoré de Balzac. On the whole which comprises this work, we find different familial structures, from the elementary, most traditional example of family, composed by a father, a mother and children, to the disorganised, such as the case of the Gobsecks, object of study of this thesis. The Gobseck family is composed of two courtesans and a usurer. Sarah is Esther\'s mother and grand-niece of Jean-Esther van Gobseck. In the episodes of their lives, narrated in some of Balzac\'s books, we do not perceive moments of interaction and intimacy between them, however, some traces make the influence of blood prevail in different moments of each one of their lives. Considering, among other factors, the non-traditional constitution of this family, whose components practice trades which are repproachable by society, the lack of intimacy and the greed for money all three have, our objective is observing what place this family has in the society created by the writer, what is their social role in a world ruled by the laws of capital and which individual characteristics make them get closer or draw apart.
