  • Social Responses to the AIDS Epidemic in Bushbuckridge, South Africa by Jonathan James
    Shared Secrets – Concealed Sufferings: Social Responses to the AIDS Epidemic in Bushbuckridge, South Africa by Jonathan James Stadler A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree PhD In the Department of Anthropology at the UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA FACULTY OF HUMANITIES SUPERVISOR: Fraser McNeil August 2011 © University of Pretoria Statement by Candidate I declare that the thesis, which I hereby submit for the degree D.Phil. (Anthropology) at the University of Pretoria, is my own work and has not previously been submitted by me for a degree at another university. Where secondary material is used, this has been carefully acknowledged and referenced in accordance with University requirements. I am aware of University policy and implications regarding plagiarism. Signature: _____________________________ Date: 25 August 2011 Dedication To my wife Conny for inspiration, insight, and encouragement, and our daughter Carla, for distraction and joy Abstract From the early 1990s, rates of HIV infection increased dramatically in South Africa and by the early 2000s, AIDS emerged as the main cause of death for adult South Africans. During the first half of the 2000s, the South African government’s response to this crisis was inadequate, marked by denial and delays in implementing prevention and treatment, resulting in thousands of preventable deaths. Yet, apart from the challenges posed by the predominantly urban-based Treatment Action Campaign (TAC), the absence of a social response to this crisis is notable, especially in rural settings. This scenario forms the broad backdrop to this ethnographic study that draws on participant observation and interviews undertaken over a three-year period (2002-2005) in KwaBomba village previously in the Gazankulu Homeland, now located in the Bushbuckridge municipality of the South African lowveld.
