Abstract

This article takes a critical stand against unidimensional approaches by revealing the contradictions of Colombia’s legal system regarding adult sex work. Thus, we ask the following research question: How has the Colombian Constitutional Court approached the commercialization of sex? In doing so, this article seeks to contribute to the literature that explores the incidence of international and national laws in regulating the commercialization of sex in domestic settings.
