520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Popular understanding of the HIV/​AIDS pandemic in Sub-Saharan Africa is riddled with contradiction and speculation. This is revealed in HIV/​AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa, which explores the various contexts in which debate about HIV/​AIDS takes place and examines how the pandemic is perceived by scholars, religious leaders and traditional healers, among others -- in communities in and around South Africa. Using a social theory lens, the book focuses on not only the cultural and contextual practices, but also the methodological and epistemological orientations around HIV/​AIDS in education that shape community and individual interpretations of this disease. The book avoids a simplistic approach to the pandemic, by exploring the complex and sometimes contradictory spaces in which HIV/​AIDS discourses are negotiated, and thus goes some way to present a more hermeneutic profile of the HIV/​AIDS problem. HIV/​AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa is as much about identity construction as it is about HIV/​AIDS. The authors recognise the interrelatedness of sex, sexuality, identity and HIV/​AIDS in the shaping of individual and collective identities and have thus gone beyond merely asking questions about what people know.
