Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gorna analyzes how familiar generalizations about AIDS deny the complex ways in which AIDS affects women's lives. She demonstrates how media representations often reproduce prejudices about women, intensifying fears around female sexuality. Statistical evidence is marshalled to reveal the concealed growth in women infected with HIV. Gorna takes to task scientists who have neglected the different impacts HIV has on women's bodies. She also reviews the facts about how a woman can acquire HIV and how it can be transmitted from a woman to her sexual partners or to her infant.

Download or read book Crossing Borders written by Mary Haour-Knipe and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academics and activists have come together in this edited volume to tackle the complex issues surrounding migration and AIDS. The book sets the agenda for the development of HIV/AIDS prevention and care programme in migrant and minority ethnic communities. Issues covered include: migration patterns; policies for migrant health; legal and human rights issues as they affect mobile populations; racism and stigma; and HIV/AIDS prevention, care and programme evaluation as they pertain to migrant communities. The editors end with an overview of some of the key issues which remain to be addressed. The book identifies foundations on which bridges can be built, attempting to turn away from thinking of migration in terms of 'them ' and 'us', of public health in terms of protection, and from conceptualizing AIDS in terms of the infected and the non-infected. It is hoped that readers will take up the challenge, turn towards groups too often ignored, and ultimately work towards social justice and equity.

Download or read book Developed Nations and the Economic Impact of Globalization written by Ken Moak and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the economic and geopolitical effects of globalization from historical and institutional perspectives. While it has had unintended consequences, such as displacing developed countries' dominance of production markets, the overall benefits of globalization far outweigh the costs. Moak argues that leading developed nations should not fear globalization but, instead, make concerted efforts to promote it in order to keep the cost-benefit balance weighing in favor of economic enhancement and geopolitical stability. Having incurred huge private and public debts as well as a weak monetary policy posture, many developed nations have been unable to recovery from the 2008 financial crisis. Moreover, geopolitical tensions are rising due to the power rivalry between the United States, China, and Russia over a host issues, including trade imbalances and geopolitics. This book aims to provide stakeholders with the relevant and necessary information to hold an objective debate on globalization. Ultimately, this book is about globalization— what it is, how it impacts the global economy and polity, and why it is needed now more than any other time in human history.
