It analyzes public health promotions in the UK and the US, HIV prevention science, and engages with Foucault's work to argue that the discourse of 'ending AIDS' creates a space where global principles and values clash with local needs, values, and concerns. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 196 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29 April 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book delves into the transformative shift in rhetoric surrounding the treatment of AIDS, moving from a crisis-oriented perspective to one of 'ending AIDS.' It explores the concept of ending AIDS and the ways in which responsibility is framed within this new discourse. The author examines the tensions that arise between individuals and the state in terms of concepts such as risk, responsibility, and prevention. Drawing from comprehensive analyses of public health promotions in the UK and the US, as well as engaging with the work of Foucault, the book argues that the discourse of ending AIDS creates a complex space where global principles and values may clash with localised needs, values, and concerns. It highlights the struggle for hegemony between evidence-based policies and local, tacit, and communal regimes of knowledge. Furthermore, it explores the competing desires and ideas about what is best for individuals in the name of ending AIDS writ large. This book holds appeal to scholars of sociology and media studies with interests in the sociology of medicine and health, medical communication, and health policy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book delves into the transformative shift in rhetoric surrounding the treatment of AIDS, moving from a crisis-oriented perspective to one of 'ending AIDS.'
