This chapter examines two nations where prostitution is legal and regulated by the state. The central features of each legal system are described, followed by an analysis of struggles over prostitution policy in the postlegalization period. Recent conflicts in Germany and the Netherlands illustrate the kinds of debates and policy proposals that may arise in other nations after prostitution is decriminalized. The legislation resulting from these recent struggles is evaluated.
