dc.description.notesArticle seeks to draw together the issue of HIV/AIDS and violence against women using the example of South Africa where endemic physical and sexual violence against women is worsening and which is located in the world’s worst HIV/AIDS-affected region. Elaborates on WHO report, Violence Against Women and HIV/AIDS : Setting the Research Agenda:, which demonstrates the links in four ways: forced sex can increase women’s risk of HIV infection; violent relationships can limit women’s ability to negotiate safe sex practices; childhood sexual abuse may increase adult sexual risk-taking; and HIV testing can lead to increased violence. Explores the concept of transaction or survival sex to explain in part the high-risk sexual behaviour of many women and to demonstrate the need for economic and social supports in AIDS-affected countries. Concludes that violence against women cannot be viewed as an isolated phenomenon but must be recognised as impacting on and itself being affected by the social, cultural, economic and public health practices of a society where HIV/AIDS is a major concern.en
