Global Institutions and the HIV/AIDS Epidemic: Responding to an International Crisis
商品簡介
Written by a leading expert in the field, this book provides a clear and incisive analysis of the different perspectives of the global response to HIV/AIDS, and the role of the different global institutions involved.

- North-South power relationships and tensions
- international and regional partnerships between donor governments and recipient countries
- governance of global institutions and impact on the capacity of developing countries to respond effectively to the epidemic
- prevention versus treatment as options in HIV/AIDS services
