Between 2002 and 2013, bilateral donors spent over $64 billion on
AIDS intervention in low- and middle-income countries. During the
same period, nearly 25 million died of AIDS and more than 32
million were newly infected with HIV. In this book for students of
political economy and public policy in Africa, as well as global
health, Kim Yi Dionne tries to understand why AIDS interventions in
Africa often fail. The fight against AIDS requires the coordination
of multiple actors across borders and levels of governance in
highly affected countries, and these actors can be the primary
sources of the problem. Dionne observes misaligned priorities along
the global chain of actors, and argues this misalignment can create
multiple opportunities for failure. Analyzing foreign aid flows and
public opinion polls, Dionne shows that while the international
community highly prioritizes AIDS, ordinary Africans view AIDS as
but one of the many problems they face daily.
