Book Synopsis AIDS Is Our Shadow by : Chris Lockhart
Download or read book AIDS Is Our Shadow written by Chris Lockhart and published by . This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study contributes to an anthropology of AIDS by focusing on the interrelations between sex, survival, and the quest for social legitimacy on the streets of one of the most impoverished urban neighborhoods of Tanzania. The author follows the daily lives of a group of divorced, separated, widowed, or unmarried women. Such women have not only received much attention amongst researchers and public health officials as being at high risk for AIDS, but they are forced to negotiate a high level of social stigma and popular speculation regarding their HIV status. The author demonstrates how the women construct a shared identity in the midst of tremendous social and economic pressures and how that identity is intimately tied to their sexual practices and personal assessments of risk for AIDS. AIDS is Our Shadow compels us to reexamine our assumptions regarding AIDS in Africa, and highlights how little we know about the everyday lives and personal struggles of those individuals and groups who are most vulnerable to the disease.

Book excerpt: Generally, normative gender relations and poverty are among the main factors precipitating the spread of HIV/AIDS. This research project examines the impact of HIV/AIDS on gender relations and sexuality. The author examines gender dynamics in interactions among young adults. In particular, she analyzes the cultural constructions of masculinity and femininity in couple relationships and the subjective experiences among young Tanzanian professionals from two different generations, in the context of past and recent processes of sociocultural change and the influence of HIV/AIDS.The author selected young adult professionals because, as a group, they embody the processes of social transformation, as they are creations of post-colonial Tanzania.The findings reveal that HIV/AIDS is occasioning changes in the cultural constructs of femininity and masculinity.This study describes processes of change in gender and sexuality in response to HIV/AIDS epidemic as part of individual initiatives to prevention, and hence contributes to HIV prevention research

It specifically discusses the four main trends that will shape tomorrow's world: - Demographics-by 2040, 1.4 billion people will be added mostly in Africa and South Asia. - Economics-increased government debt and concentrated economic power will escalate problems for the poor and middleclass. - Climate-a hotter world will increase water, food, and health insecurity. - Technology-the emergence of new technologies could both solve and cause problems for human life. Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.

Download or read book At Risk written by Piers Blaikie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term 'natural disaster' is often used to refer to natural events such as earthquakes, hurricanes or floods. However, the phrase 'natural disaster' suggests an uncritical acceptance of a deeply engrained ideological and cultural myth. At Risk questions this myth and argues that extreme natural events are not disasters until a vulnerable group of people is exposed. The updated new edition confronts a further ten years of ever more expensive and deadly disasters and discusses disaster not as an aberration, but as a signal failure of mainstream 'development'. Two analytical models are provided as tools for understanding vulnerability. One links remote and distant 'root causes' to 'unsafe conditions' in a 'progression of vulnerability'. The other uses the concepts of 'access' and 'livelihood' to understand why some households are more vulnerable than others. Examining key natural events and incorporating strategies to create a safer world, this revised edition is an important resource for those involved in the fields of environment and development studies.

Book excerpt: The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage
