Book Synopsis Mobility, Sexuality and AIDS by : Felicity Thomas
Download or read book Mobility, Sexuality and AIDS written by Felicity Thomas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-10-16 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, population mobility has intensified and become more diverse, raising important questions concerning the health and well-being of people who are mobile as well as communities of origin and destination. Ongoing concerns have been voiced about possible links between mobility and HIV, with calls being made to contain or control migrant populations, and debate linking HIV with issues of global security and surveillance being fuelled. This volume challenges common assumptions about mobility, HIV and AIDS. A series of interlinked chapters prepared by international experts explores the experiences of people who are mobile as they relate to sexuality and to HIV susceptibility and impact. The various chapters discuss the factors that contribute to the vulnerability of different mobile groups but also examine the ways in which agency, resilience and adaptation shape lived experience and help people protect themselves throughout the mobility process. Looking at diverse forms of migration and mobility – covering flight from conflict, poverty and exploitation, through labour migration to ‘sex tourism’ – the book reports on research findings from around the world, including the USA, the UK, sub-Saharan Africa, Australia, Central America and China. Mobility, Sexuality and AIDS recognises the complex relationships between individual circumstances, population mobility and community and state response. It is invaluable reading for policy makers, students and practitioners working in the fields of migration, development studies, anthropology, sociology, geography and public health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents original and high quality contributions on women’s migration from several different perspectives. Because of its complex nature, this topic has been examined in order to bring into dialogue a variety of theoretical perspectives, within an interdisciplinary context which includes not only sociology, anthropology, psychology and political geography, but also linguistics and literature. As the papers present the results of research projects which refer to specific geographical contexts, the collection is structured around the diverse destinations of the migrations here considered: namely, the Italian city of Palermo, Italy and Europe. All the papers were presented during the sixth edition of the “Migration, Human Rights and Democracy” Summer School, organized by the University of Palermo, Italy, in September 2012, which every year focuses on specific topics concerning questions of migration and human motilities in the contemporary world.
Book Synopsis Analysis of Social Aspects of Migrant Labourers Living with HIV/AIDS Using Fuzzy Theory and Neutrosophic Cognitive Maps by : W. B. Vasantha Kandasamy
Download or read book Analysis of Social Aspects of Migrant Labourers Living with HIV/AIDS Using Fuzzy Theory and Neutrosophic Cognitive Maps written by W. B. Vasantha Kandasamy and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HIV/AIDS is everyones business. Today is more an issue of society, than a matter of medicine In this bold attempt that searches for sociological solutions, the gripping real life stories of sixty migrant labourers living with HIV/AIDS in rural Tamil Nadu, India, have been documented. Their socio-psychological aspects have been analyzed using the latest fuzzy mathematical tools like Fuzzy Cognitive Maps, Bidirectional Associative Memories, and Fuzzy Relational Maps. Because of the need to represent the real world, Neutrosophy (the philosophy of neutralities) and its connected structure, Neutrosophic Cognitive Maps, have been employed for their unique ability to handle indeterminacy between concepts. Presented in a lucid manner, this book is an important contribution to HIV/AIDS literature.
