International Security, Conflict and Gender: 'HIV/AIDS is Another War'


Add your own review!

Overview

HIV / AIDS and Security presents a unique and in depth perspective on the spread of HIV in a population as an issue of national and international security. It examines conflict as an agent of disease contagion, and infection amongst soldiers compromising country security. The aim of the book is to reconceptualize the complex and difficult relationship between conflict and HIV/AIDS. This is done in order to better interrogate claims about the link between HIV/AIDS and security. It takes gender as a foundational lens to understand the relationship between conflict and HIV/AIDS. It develops a gender framework for HIV/AIDS-conflict analysis, looking at the vulnerability of women in conflict zones. HIV / AIDS and Security will be of interest to students and scholars of healthcare politics, security and governance.
