Abstract:In the public debate surrounding street prostitution a technical approach has been dominant, the two main protagonists both ignoring the moral dimension of the debate.

The author argues that pressure groups defending prostitutes should question the negative judgments they hold on prostitution. Only this re‐examination can assure the harmonization between political strategies and political program.
