Nancy Stoller records how the poor, people of color, gay men and
lesbians, drug users, and women have built social movements to
fight the impact of AIDS, revealing that organizational structure
and culture have a greater impact on who is served and how than do
public health theories or official organizational goals. She draws
on ethnographic research and the words of the activists themselves,
as well as the literature of social movements and theories of
bureaucracy. In addition to the stories of the organizational
strategies, the book offers guidelines for dealing with diversity
and conflict with both theoretical and practical perspectives on
cross-community and international organizing.
