This book brings together theories of health justice and multiple sources of empirical evidence to investigate the complex problem of HIV, and accompanying poor health outcomes in black South African women as an urgent problem of justice-a health inequity-that is changeable. This work is motivated by a concern for application of knowledge: how to better conceptualise what health justice demands of state and society, and to mobilise available evidence on health inequities in ways that compel greater state action to address problems of gender and health. The problems, and possible responses, are investigated on four distinct levels: conceptual, social structure, health systems, and law. The analysis argues for greater state action in addressing the problem of health inequity in women, which is indeed modifiable with long term interventions and an enhanced state response at multiple levels. This book's primary readership includes academics and students in the social health sciences, gender and development studies, and global health, as well as HIV/health activists, governmental officers, policy makers, HIV clinicians and health providers interested in HIV.
