| Background |
I have just completed an Honours degree at RMIT. My thesis was an autoethnographic look into discursive constructs of sex work in the legal Sex Industry in Melbourne |
| Disciplinary interests |
Sociology, post-modern feminist epistemologies; (auto) ethnography; and ethno-mimesis |
| Thesis Title |
Working title: Discursive constructs of sex work |
| Thesis description |
I have a particular interest in how dominant discourses structure what is ‘statable’ and what is not. In terms of the legal sex industry in Melbourne, I am interested in looking at the multiple knowledges held by women involved in sex work in legal Melbourne brothels; and by extension, how these knowledges are put into discourse. |
