Socio-­Historical Aspects of the Process of Institutionalization of Prostitutional Relations

The article presents a socio-historical analysis of the formation of prostitution as a social institution. The considered concepts about the origin of prostitution, regardless of the root causes — a relic of archaic-primitive instincts, building a social structure through exchange, where a woman was a medium of exchange or the decline of orgiastic cults, allowed the author to conclude that there was a regulation of sexual relations and the construction of gender discriminatory structure of society. Based on the works of various authors, the main stages of the process of institutionalization of prostitution are identified — “state-regional”, “socio-regional”, transnational-global”. The article analyzes the interaction with other social institutions. The state of the system of prostitutional relations at the present “transnational-global” stage is described, where prostitution has become one of the elements of the sex industry. The intensification of criminalization and discrimination in the field of prostitution relations is noted.
