Download or read book Sex and Stigma written by Sarah Jane Blithe and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate and original look at the lives of Nevada’s legal sex workers through the voices of current and former employees, brothel owners, madams, and local law enforcement The state of Nevada is the only jurisdiction in the United States where prostitution is legal. Wrapped in moral judgments about sexual conduct and shrouded in titillating intrigue, stories about Nevada’s legal brothels regularly steal headlines. The stigma and secrecy pervading sex work contribute to experiences of oppression and unfair labor practices for many legal prostitutes in Nevada. Sex and Stigma engages with stories of women living and working in these “hidden” organizations to interrogate issues related to labor rights, secrecy, privacy, and discrimination in the current legal brothel system. Including interviews with current and former legal sex workers, brothel owners, madams, local police, and others, Sex and Stigma examines how widespread beliefs about the immorality of selling sexual services have influenced the history and laws of legal brothel prostitution. With unique access to a difficult-to-reach population, the authors privilege the voices of brothel workers throughout the book as they reflect on their struggles to engage in their communities, conduct business, maintain personal relationships, and transition out of the industry. Further, the authors examine how these brothels operate like other kinds of legal entities, and how individuals contend with balancing work and non-work commitments, navigate work place cultures, and handle managerial relationships. Sex and Stigma serves as a resource on the policies guiding legal prostitution in Nevada and provides an intimate look at the lived experiences of women performing sex work.

Book Son of a Gambling Man

Download or read book Son of a Gambling Man written by Bob Miller and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A memoir of growing up in mob-run Sin City from a casino heir-turned-governor who's seen two sides of every coin When Bob Miller arrived in Las Vegas as a boy, it was a small, dusty city, a far cry from the glamorous, exciting place it is today. Driving the family car was his father Ross Miller, a tough guy—though a good family man—who had operated on both sides of the law on some of the meaner streets of industrial Chicago. The Miller family was as close and as warm as "Ozzie and Harriet," as long as you knew that Ozzie was a bookmaker and a business acquaintance of some very dubious criminal types. As Bob grew up, so did Vegas, now a "town" of some two million. Ross Miller became a respectable businessman and partner in a major casino, though he was still capable of settling a score with his fists. And Bob went on to law school, entering law enforcement and eventually becoming a popular governor of Nevada, holding office longer than anybody in the state's history. And the Miller family's legacy continues. Bob's own son is presently serving as Secretary of State. A warm family memoir, the story of a city heir, with just a little bit of The Godfather and Casino thrown in for spice, Son of a Gambling Man is a unique and thoroughly memorable story.

Book All the Water the Law Allows

    Book Details:
  • Author : Christian S. Harrison
  • Publisher : University of Oklahoma Press
  • Release : 2021-08-12
  • ISBN : 0806176881
  • Pages : 356 pages

Download or read book All the Water the Law Allows written by Christian S. Harrison and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the population of the greater Las Vegas area grows and the climate warms, the threat of a water shortage looms over southern Nevada. But as Christian S. Harrison demonstrates in All the Water the Law Allows, the threat of shortage arises not from the local environment but from the American legal system, specifically the Law of the River that governs water allocation from the Colorado River. In this political and legal history of the Las Vegas water supply, Harrison focuses on the creation and actions of the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) to tell a story with profound implications and important lessons for water politics and natural resource policy in the twenty-first century. In the state with the smallest allocation of the Colorado’s water supply, Las Vegas faces the twin challenges of aridity and federal law to obtain water for its ever-expanding population. All the Water the Law Allows describes how the impending threat of shortage in the 1980s compelled the five metropolitan water agencies of greater Las Vegas to unify into a single entity. Harrison relates the circumstances of the SNWA’s evolution and reveals how the unification of local, county, and state interests allowed the compact to address regional water policy with greater force and focus than any of its peers in the Colorado River Basin. Most notably, the SNWA has mapped conservation plans that have drastically reduced local water consumption; and, in the interstate realm, it has been at the center of groundbreaking, water-sharing agreements. Yet these achievements do not challenge the fundamental primacy of the Law of the River. If current trends continue and the Basin States are compelled to reassess the river’s distribution, the SNWA will be a force and a model for the Basin as a whole.

  • Author : Joseph Fitzpatrick
  • Publisher : CreateSpace
  • Release : 2015-05-26
  • ISBN : 9781512301892
  • Pages : 212 pages

Download or read book 645 Simplified written by Joseph Fitzpatrick and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-05-26 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We know that reading all of NRS 645 and NAC 645 is certainly a challenge. That's why we have hand-selected some of the more important and relevant laws and regulations to help you prepare for the Nevada state licensing exam. We also combined NRS 645 and NAC 645 where the topics are similar or the same. As an example, "agency" statutes in NRS 645 are followed by "agency" regulations from NAC 645. Each law and regulation is followed with an easy-to-understand explanation as marked with our "Simply Put" icon. Our experience with our students has found that most all of the students who have difficulty with the state portion do so because they have not read the laws and regulations. It may be tiring, but it is essential that you do. Although we have focused on what we believe to be testable topics, anything in NRS 645 and NAC 645 is fair game for the state exam. The RealtySchool.com textbook, 645 Simplified, should be used as an additional resource when preparing for your Nevada state exam or even your licensing school's exam, but it is not intended to serve as your main course of instruction. RealtySchool.com and I have published this reference guide to help you through NRS and NAC 645 in preparation for the Nevada real estate licensing exam. We hope you find the publication to be a helpful supplement in preparing for your upcoming exam.
