Within modern democratic nations, there are a specific group of offences which bear the brunt of the label ‘crimes against morality’. These include offences related to prostitution and pornography, homosexuality, incest, and child sexual abuse. This book examines the historical, anthropological and moral reasons for such differentiations in contemporary western culture.
