Culture and Sexual Risk addresses many controversial themes that
have emerged over the last few years: the ethics of sex research,
the role of Westem anthropologists in developing nations, the role
of heterosexuals in AIDS research and the impact of AIDS on the
discipline of anthropology. Brummelhuis and Herdt provide an
intense examination of sexual risk and its cultural configurations
heretofore missing from the AIDS literature. The chapters on Westem
gay men speak to the pressing methodological, conceptual and
theoretical needs in HIV/AIDS research while providing an
understanding and documentation of gay men's lives within the
emerging corpus of lesbian and gay studies. Chapters on the
Philippines, Brazil, Haiti and Africa explore the cultural,
political and economic contexts surrounding the transmission and
prevention of HIV/AIDS in these cultures.
