This article examines violence in legalized brothels in Nevada. Debates o
ver prosti
-
tution policies in the United States have long focused on questions of safe
ty and risk.
These discourses inevitably invoke the coupling of violence and prostitu
tion, though
systematic examinations of the relationship between the two are sparse. T
his article
explores the issue of violence in the Nevada brothel industry. By drawing o
n inter
-
views with prostitutes, managers, and policy makers, this article examin
es both pros-
titutes’ perceptions of safety and risk and brothel managers’ practices d
esigned to
mitigate violence. Discourses relate to three types of violence: interpe
rsonal vio-
lence against prostitutes, violence against community order, and sexual
ly transmit-
ted diseases as violence. The authors conclude by arguing that the legaliz
ation of
prostitution brings a level of public scrutiny, official regulation, and
bureaucratiza-
tion to brothels that decreases the risk of these 3 types of sy
stematic violence.
