Male Same-sex Sexuality and HIV in Sub-Saharan Africa Paperback / softback
Edited by Theo Sandfort
Part of the Social Aspects of HIV series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book addresses the impact of HIV on populations of men who have sex with men in Africa and local responses to the issue.
It documents the enduring existence of a rich variety of same-sex practices between men.
More critically, it analyses how the denial and social rejection of same-sex sexuality, together with the legacy of criminalization by former colonial rulers, has not only fueled the transmission of HIV between men, but has also impeded an effective response.
The book also documents some of the outstanding progress that has been made and acknowledges the differences between African countries.
Through its focus on lived realities and grassroots activism in Africa, this book will appeal to researchers, policy makers and practitioners alike.
