Prostitution Prevention Law
The (Law no. 118, May 24, 1956) is a law in Japan that aims to prevent prostitution, punish third parties involved in the trade and to protect and rehabilitate women involved in prostitution. It is also known as the 'Anti-Prostitution Law'. The law came into force on April 1, 1957, and all provisions were fully effective on April 1 of the following year. As the law does not punish prostitution per se, (client and prostitute), it is viewed as a preventive law rather than a prohibition law. History Japan has a history of supervised prostitution dating back to the Kamakura period (1185â1333). In 1618, during the Edo period, YÅ«kaku areas were set up and prostitution regulated. From the late 1880s onwards, various groups, including the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and Purity Society lobbied for the end of legalised prostitution.
