In “The Causes of Prostitution,” James Peter Warbasse delves into the multifaceted socio-economic and psychological factors that contribute to the reality of prostitution in early 20th-century America. Employing a blend of sociological analysis and psychological insight, Warbasse argues that societal structures'Äîsuch as poverty, gender inequality, and lack of education'Äîplay critical roles in the persistence of this complex issue. The text is characterized by a methodical approach, reflecting the progressive movement of the time, which sought to understand social injustices through empirical evidence and reformist zeal.
