Few books, if any books on HIV/AIDS, document the causes and consequences of the disease at the household level in rural Africa. Here, readers will find a lucid, down-to-earth description of the reality faced by rural people living with HIV/AIDS in southern Africa. This book provides a faithful account of the actual causes and consequences of the dissemination of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in agricultural communities of Tanzania and Mozambique. It addresses the impact of existing land tenure patterns on the spread of HIV/AIDS, as well as the impact of HIV/AIDS on land tenure patterns. The book distinguishes itself by taking a close look at the gender, population and migration questions that affect, and are affected by, HIV/AIDS - especially in relation to land tenure. Its clear and simple presentation of the facts in two fieldwork case-studies allows the reader to understand the changes the disease has brought to rural African landscapes and communities.
