I don't think it has worked the way people think it works. The numbers are smaller but that's because no one knows how many prostitutes there are. It's also ideologically driven so any numbers should be treated with suspicion.That is true, also in countries like Germany where Prostitution is legal and highly visible, ads in newspapers (and even at one stage a job centre) active recruiting etc make it easy for brothels to attract young women. Who they then push into being independent contractors, usually in a former hotel where they have to pay 'Rent'.
It's great for coomers, but countries like Sweden that don't want their young women to become whores, have decided to take a different approach, and they've shown going after the users is by far the most effective tactic.
They bust apartment brothels from time to time, if you ask them if the [xx] foreign women there were part of their women in prostitution statistic the answer would be no, how could they have known? Then they bust another one, and another one and there's always more because they continue to raid them and none of those women are part of the very low number that proves that the nordic model works. It proves that the nordic model created a lucrative market for trafficking women though, it wasn't like that before 2000, people warned that it would happen as well. The usual counter/whataboutism is Australia and asian women.
