Revisiting Hiv/aids in French Culture - Raw Matters

This volume offers a multidisciplinary study of the HIV/AIDS crisis in the French context from the 1980s to today through the concept of rawness. Exploring vulnerability, exposure, risk, citizenship, and trauma in relation to disease, this collection provides important tools to understand and discuss both the ongoing HIV and SARS-CoV-2 pandemics.
