The purpose of this essay is to examine Prostitutionsgruppens ("Prostitution group") concrete operation, its organisation and how the group have changed since sexköpslagens ("sexbuy law") incorporated.

They act as intermediary of the knowledge they have gained through meeting people in prostitution.

I have interviewed one social worker in the group and researched earlier literature. The analysis of this thesis is based on institutional theory. Prostitutionsgruppen works active for the target group and they change their activity every year. The group activities are flexible and in the eye of society it is considered legitimate.

When sexköpslagen was incorporated Prostitutionsgruppen did not receive any financial resources because it should be covered from their regular activity. They have not changed their way of work and the organisation has not changed because of sexköpslagen. They have started to work more outreach towards the internet to establish contact with prostitutes. (Less)
