VILLA CAMARMA, Elvira. Estudio antropológico en torno a la prostitución. Cuicuilco [online]. 2010, vol.17, n.49, pp.157-179. ISSN 0185-1659.

This paper analyses the different theoretical and socio-political approaches to women's prostitution. It focuses in the study of the sexual construction of reality, that is, in the implicit and explicit meanings given to the body, to women sexuality and to its relation with prostitution by each of those approaches: a) body as an economic source, b) body as crime source, and c) body as a victim-tyrant antagonism.
