About This Item
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Routledge, 1992. Trade Paperback. Very Good. This book examines the legislative changes of the sixties relating to abortion, obscenity, homosexuality and prostitution that are commonly believed to illustrate the permissive or liberal character of the era and casts doubt on the view propounded by politicians and moralists that such changes indicated moral relaxation and increasing sexual license; it argues that the ideology of permissiveness requires close examination; it contrasts the moral climate of the sixties with the moral politics of the eighties (pictorial cover, slightly cocked, otherwise in perfect condition)
