摘要

本文重构了美国历史上最早的性工作者权利运动。这些法律允许市政官员将 "普通妓女 "立即送入监狱服刑数月。大规模逮捕引发了一场 "街头流浪者 "的反监狱运动，他们拒绝被控制。与中产阶级的女权运动不同的是，街头流浪者为自己争取平等权利，他们的行动是要建立一个世界，在这个世界里，她们可以控制自己的劳动，可以在不受惩罚的情况下发生性关系，可以在城市中自由行动。

The other women's rights movement: ‘Streetwalkers’, habeas corpus and anticarceral activism in New York City, 1830–1860

This article reconstructs the earliest known movement for sex workers' rights in US history. It interprets collective assertions of due process as a strategy to overturn vagrancy laws, which permitted municipal officials to summarily commit ‘common prostitutes’ to the penitentiary for months. Mass arrests sparked an anticarceral movement of ‘streetwalkers’ who refused to be contained. Unlike the middle-class Woman's Rights Movement, which sought equal rights for their own sake, streetwalkers acted to build a world in which they could control their own labour, have sex without punishment and move freely through their city.

期刊介绍： Gender & History is now established as the major international journal for research and writing on the history of femininity and masculinity and of gender relations. Spanning epochs and continents, Gender & History examines changing conceptions of gender, and maps the dialogue between femininities, masculinities and their historical contexts. The journal publishes rigorous and readable articles both on particular episodes in gender history and on broader methodological questions which have ramifications for the discipline as a whole.
