摘要

The weak Dominican economy combined with the culture that heavily favors men and allows for their sexual promiscuity, creates an atmosphere where sex work is one of the few job options for poor women, and needs to be respected as work. Sex work is a profession that incites some of the most extreme and passionate debates, and yet despite the proliferation of attention, violations of sex workers' human rights persist- virtually unabated. Women sex workers in the Dominican Republic often face harsh treatment from clients, brothel owners, law enforcement, and the surrounding community, fueled by cultural norms of sex, gender power struggles, racial conflicts, and economics. However, these women are uniting and working to change their circumstances and in the process are disrupting many of the cultural norms that have kept the status quo in place. They are demanding to be treated with the same rights and privileges as any other workers, including rights to social security, rights to unionize, and rights to bargain collectively. This Note argues that legalizing sex work in the Dominican Republic and regulating the sex industry under the Labor Code and the International Labor Organization will help the Dominican Republic achieve the human rights ideals of the United Nations.
