Article Synopsis
- The HIV/AIDS pandemic in South Africa has severely impacted the lives of individuals in marginalized communities, forcing them to navigate survival through migration, gender violence, and social exclusion.
- Using the concept of "tactic" from de Certeau, the paper highlights how anthropology can explore the everyday experiences of people living with AIDS to reveal their strategies for creating support networks, seeking treatment, and generating income while avoiding violence.
- The paper argues that for effective implementation of AIDS treatment programs, the State must address systemic inequalities and understand the socio-economic pressures that lead to marginalized behaviors rather than judge them morally.
