This book is the first full-length study of HIV/AIDS work in
relation to government and NGOs. In the early 2000s, Pakistan's
response to HIV/AIDS was scaled-up and declared an area of urgent
intervention. This response was funded by international donors
requiring prevention, care and support services to be contracted
out to NGOs - a global policy considered particularly important in
Pakistan where the high risk populations are criminalized by the
state. Based on unparalleled ethnographic access to government
bureaucracies and their dealings with NGOs, Qureshi examines how
global policies were translated by local actors and how they
responded to the evolving HIV/AIDS crisis. The book encourages
readers to reconsider the orthodoxy of policies regarding
public-private partnership by critiquing the resulting changes in
the bureaucracy, civil society and public goods. It is a must-read
for students, scholars and practitioners concerned with neoliberal
agendas in global health and development.
