The Politics of AIDS - Globalization, the State and Civil Society (Hardcover)

This book provides a unique comparative approach to the politics of HIV/AIDS throughout the world.It features a stellar line-up of scholars including Nana Poku, Tony Barnett, Dennis Altman, Suzanne Leclerc-Madlala, Steven Robins, May Chazan, Beril Egero and Mikael Hammarskjold. It is an excellent accompaniment to Barnett and Whiteside's AIDS in the Twenty-First Century - going deeper into issues explored there. It places African case studies in comparative perspective with Asia, Australasia, Latin America and Europe.HIV/AIDS is the major political challenge of our time. Based on empirical observations from all over the world, this book examines how HIV/AIDS has become increasingly transnational, as nation states have extended their programmes across borders, and transnational networks have increased their activities.
