The The Swedish Porn Scene by Mariah Larsson Phd
This book presents a close look at the golden age of Swedish pornography in the 1970s, with a specific focus on pornographic films screened in Malm between 1971 and 1976. How, Mariah Larsson asks, was that one small city's embrace of the era's sexual liberation both representative and unique in relation to the rest of Sweden? Combining historical case studies with comprehensive analyses of advertisements, critical responses and censorship records, Larsson deconstructs the complexities and paradoxes of the Swedish porn scene. Looking as closely at the exhibition spaces where porn was seen as at the productions themselves and their audiences, Larsson reveals the conditions and social changes that allowed pornography in Sweden to flourish in the period.‘This careful analysis will have significant
resonance across the western worldIt also provides a much needed historical background to recent and likely future changes in Swedish policy around commercial sex.’
