This thesis is based on a series of interviews with key informants and a census of orphan households in Nguludi Mission Community, Southern Malawi, in 2000. The thesis argues that although HIV/AIDS is a relatively recent phenomenon, any contemporary understanding of the epidemic must be informed by an understanding of the past. The impact of the HIV/AIDS epidemic and the "orphan problem" at the local level, is, therefore, situated within the broader socio-economic context of the history of the region. 2015-03-04T19:26:50Z 2015-03-04T19:26:50Z 2003 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12573 eng application/pdf Aids and Society Research Unit Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
