“…The HIV/AIDS field in South Africa has been marked by intense contestation and repeated resistance by the state to claims made of it e whether relating to individual rights of people with HIV/AIDS or to treatment access (Butler, 2005;Mbali, 2005;Schneider, 2002). These battles, however, were as much about socio-economic rights as about the vexed question of who should and how to speak about HIV/ AIDS e both to define the problem, its extent and causes and to generate appropriate responses (Schneider, 2002).…”

Each claimed to speak for the poor and vulnerable, and both tapped into deeply held collective experience, even if the elements of crude denialism on the part of President Mbeki were rejected by many.…”

“…Butler and Mosley both argue that the mono-causal/multi-causal divide might have underpinned Mbeki's denialism (although they each use slightly different language to make this point). Butler (2005) remains neutral about the relative merits of these perspectives and focuses instead on describing the context that allowed for the ascendancy of the multi-causal approach in South Africa. Mosley (2004) argues that the mono-causal and multi-causal approaches are both legitimate perspectives to adopt toward disease.…”
