NIETO OLIVAR, José Miguel. "God is Being Kind to Me, He Gave Me a Slit of Joy for Me to Enjoy!": Public Spheres and the Judiciary Production of "Prostitution" in Contemporary Colombia. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2015, vol.51, n.1, pp.109-135. ISSN 0486-6525.

This article examines the agency of three groups of actors who participated in the debates around the Bill 079 of 2013, which establishes the new administrative legal status of prostitution in Colombia. It also develops a critical reading on the widening of the public sphere that this bill promoted and an assessment about the effectiveness of the agency and the mobilization of a new public who participated in the political debate, particularly sex workers. Finally, it concludes with an analysis on the possibility of building public and political senses and principles in order to create minimal agreements on sexual and economic uses of the female body -issues previously considered private-, and therefore on prostitution with the intention to contribute to the search for a common place.
