Remaking masculinity in Bwaise -- The making of masculinity in urban Uganda -- Providing in poverty -- Women's rights in the remaking of masculinity -- The intersection of masculinity, sexuality and AIDS
Summary
"AIDS has been a devastating plague in much of Sub-Saharan Africa, yet the long-term implications for gender and sexuality are just emerging. This book examines how AIDS has altered the ways masculinity is lived in Uganda, a country known as Africa's great AIDS success story. Based on extensive ethnographic research in an urban slum community called Bwaise, this book reveals the persistence of masculine privilege in the age of AIDS and the implications such privilege has for men's and women's health and wellbeing in Uganda and beyond"--Provided by publisher
