'Lessons learned' highlighted as global politics of HIV/AIDS examined in new research

tity" by Meredith Weiss (East-West Center), considers civil societal mobilization in the absence of state engagement in Singapore and Malaysia. In both countries civil society is highly controlled and the lack of state action regarding the pandemic created new "free spaces" for HIV/AIDS organizations to mobilize and foster new identities and networks among the highest-risk communities such as the gay population and sex workers.

The themes considered in this symposium represent only some of the ways in which the social science of HIV/AIDS can be approached. All four articles provide greater insight into crucial dynamics in the politics of HIV/AIDS such as mobilization and marginalization of different groups from a range of analytical perspectivesglobal, local, state, grassroots, activist, and that of beneficiaries. The significance of the new research found here, Densham observes, also lies in the fact that it brings together a remarkable group of scholars to help illuminate "the diverse and lasting impact that HIV/AIDS has had, not only on the health and wellbeing of so many world citizens, but also on relationships between states and citizens and among corporations, governments, and civil society."
