   Author : Anna Hulusjö; Malmö högskola; []
   Keywords : prostitution; power; resistance; personal narratives; genealogical approaches to narrative analysis;

That is, how power relations, knowledges, discourses and practices interconnect in making particular forms of prostitution and particular ways of making sense of prostitution experience possible.
