As global health organizations claim that the AIDS/HIV crisis is nearing its end, Living with HIV in Post-Crisis Times: Beyond the Endgame examines how people living with HIV navigate changes in the management and control of the HIV pandemic.
Over the past decade, effective prevention and treatment policies have resulted in global health organizations claiming that the end of the HIV/AIDS crisis is near and that HIV/AIDS is now a chronic but manageable disease. These proclamations have been accompanied by stagnant or decreasing public interest in and financial support for people living with HIV and the organizations that support them, minimizing significant global disparities in the management and control of the HIV pandemic. The contributors to this edited collection explore how diverse communities of people living with HIV (PLHIV) navigate physical, social, political, and economic challenges during these so-called “post-crisis” times.

David A.B. Murray is professor of anthropology and sexuality studies at York University.
