Hur har Moderaternas inställning till prostitution förändrats?

Sammanfattning

This study aims to investigate how Moderaterna's attitude towards prostitution has changed over time. The starting point for this investigation is the Swedish Act prohibiting the purchase of sexual services. By examining the concept of policy diffusion, this study analyzes how the incentives embedded in the law, both explicitly and underlying, have contributed to the party's changing attitudes. Initially, the party did not support the law, but its stance has evolved significantly over time. It is evident that both the explicit and implicit incentives of the law have strongly influenced the party's position on prostitution. The mechanisms behind these changes can be explained through the policy diffusion criteria of "learning" and "emulation."
