Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the interpretation within the documented political ambitions related to the Swedish prostitution law, and the social workers code of ethics.

The aim of this study was to examine the interpretation within the documented political ambitions related to the Swedish prostitution law, and the social workers code of ethics. The study’s specific purpose was to try to understand that the prostitution agency in Malmo differ from the prostitution agencies in Gothenburg and Stockholm, by to a larger extent incorporate harm reduction strategies in their work. Neither the other two agencies nor the politics argue this work strategy, but the exit strategies instead. The study was based on a text analysis where the proposition Kvinnofrid that represent what the politics argue in this matter, and a document about the social workers code of ethics, written by the social worker’s trade union were analyzed. The analysis aimed to study interpretation possibilities within these documents that could show reason for prostitution agencies to differ from each other, but also from what the politics argue. The study also included an interview with a social worker in Malmo, to examine how they motivate their choice to include harm reduction strategies. What the interview brought was thereby used as part of an analysis tool, alongside the literary theory reader-response criticism, which focuses on text interpretations. As a conclusion interpretation possibilities within the documents could be seen and understood as enabling the possible interpretation that explain the prostitution agencies different choice of action, and also the choice of using alternating strategies related to what the politics argue.
