He brings issues such as sexuality, class, and religious beliefs into the open for the first time. Compelling interviews with activists, people with AIDS, government leaders, and church leaders-all show how the epidemic has developed. Frasca draws lessons from Latin America and the strong activist involvement that succeeded in increasing government resources to fight the disease. Tragic tales and gripping narratives are intermixed with the first set of comprehensive epidemic statistics from the continent, eagerly awaited by the World Health community. 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aEthnology$zLatin America 606 $aCulture 606 $aAmerica$xHistory 606 $aEthnology 606 $aSociology 606 $aDevelopment Studies 606 $aDevelopment Economics 606 $aLatin American Culture 606 $aHistory of the Americas 606 $aEthnography 606 $aSociology 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aAmerica$xHistory. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aSociology. 615 14$aDevelopment Studies. 615 24$aDevelopment Economics. 615 24$aLatin American Culture. 615 24$aHistory of the Americas. 615 24$aEthnography. 615 24$aSociology. 676 $a362.196/9792/0098 700 $aFrasca$b Tim$01791664 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973521203321 996 $aAIDS in Latin America$94329381 997 $aUNINA
