Summary/Abstract: In 1999 the issue of prostitution became a hot topic, widely discussed and debated in the Hungarian public discourse, as a new prostitution law was to be formulated that year. As one would expect, the new legislation on prostitution was supposed to achieve some kind of solution by allowing prostitution to be practiced in certain places under certain conditions. However, this is far from what actually happened to Hungarian prostitution.
