Stephen Legg

    El trabajo de Stephen Legg profundiza en las intrincadas conexiones entre geografía y sociedad, explorando cómo el poder y la gobernanza se manifiestan dentro de las disposiciones espaciales de las comunidades. Investiga el profundo impacto del colonialismo, examinando cómo los problemas sociales son moldeados por políticas gubernamentales y estructuras de poder más amplias. La erudición de Legg ofrece una lente crítica a través de la cual comprender la compleja interacción de espacio, control y experiencia humana. Su investigación ilumina cómo la organización del espacio influye en la vida individual y da forma a las trayectorias históricas.

      Focusing on the spatial politics of brothels in British India during the interwar period, the book explores how reform campaigns shifted from tolerating to suppressing these establishments. By combining insights from sexology and hygiene with moral concerns about sexual slavery, reformers argued that brothels exacerbated social issues rather than contained them. Stephen Legg examines the multifaceted impacts of these campaigns across various scales, revealing how they reshaped urban and colonial boundaries and ultimately led to the civil abandonment of prostitutes.
