metadata.value: The history of the study of prostitution is based on acceptance of one of the explanatory
  models — that prostitution is violence, deviation or economic choice. The author developed
  an applied sociological model of the life trajectories of women involved in prostitution,
  based on the results of her own theoretical and empirical research and the experience of
  social work with women involved in prostitution. This model is the result of the integration
  of the sociology of life course and the ecological model. The model consists of five consecutive
  stages: approximation, entry, adaptation, immersion, and exit. Development of the
  life trajectory in prostitution occurs in a social context that can be analyzed at four levels:
  micro-, meso-, exo- and macro-levels. The model is based on the idea of prostitution as a multifaceted phenomenon, and the premise that women involved in prostitution are a heterogeneous
  group. Within the framework of this model, prostitution is viewed in a dynamic
  aspect, as a process of an individual’s development in certain socio-ecological contexts, as a
  life trajectory, which is based on a combination of previous events and circumstances that
  formed the “path to prostitution”. The proposed sociological model provides a general structure
  and knowledge base for advancing the study of prostitution; it helps to identify white
  spots in the study of the phenomenon of prostitution and contributes to the hypotheses. The
  study discusses the applied value of the model for the development of effective measures
  of social control of prostitution, which should take into account the existence of different
  stages of life in prostitution.
