This edited volume analyzes African state responses to the AIDS
epidemic. Institutionally weak, limited in resources and lacking
power in the international system, the African state has been
characterized as inefficient, corrupt and illegitimate. The volume
questions how aspects of the African state have affected policy
responses to AIDS. It highlights how African states must initiate,
develop and/or implement the long-term policy solutions necessary
to combat AIDS. It employs empirical studies from the international
and national arena to illustrate why some African states have been
able (and willing) to address AIDS while others have not.
Contributions analyze how international actors, civil society
organizations, state ideology, patriarchy and state capacity have
influenced policies to fight AIDS. Examining AIDS policies through
the prism of African state development and linkages to domestic and
international actors, this book provides a nuanced understanding of
the variety of responses to AIDS in Africa.
