Rozwój systemów opieki zdrowotnej w Afryce Subsaharyjskiej by¿ w ostatnich dwóch dekadach powänie zagro¿ony wzrostem HIV/AIDS. Wci¿¿ jeszcze s¿abo rozumiany jest zwi¿zek mi¿dzy polityk¿ zdrowotn¿ a HIV/AIDS w Republice Po¿udniowej Afryki. This book tackles different dimensions to this problem through different types of enquiry and analysis. Poniewä w przesz¿o¿ci istniäa luka w naszym rozumieniu wp¿ywu HIV/AIDS na systemy opieki zdrowotnej, w pierwszej kolejno¿ci uwzgl¿dniono w niej empiryczne dowody z badä nad placówkami s¿u¿by zdrowia i strukturami zarz¿dzania zdrowiem w okr¿gu zdrowia w KwaZulu-Natal. Trendy wywo¿ane przez te badania stanowi¿ nast¿pnie podstaw¿ cz¿¿ci po¿wi¿conej analizie polityki, w której rozwäa si¿ stosowno¿¿ po¿udniowoafrykäskiej polityki zdrowotnej od 1994 roku do chwili obecnej w odniesieniu do HIV/AIDS. To complete the picture, a more theoretical look is taken at the potential future influence of the antiretroviral therapy programme on the health system and how various health system scenarios may play out.

The development of health systems in sub-Saharan Africa has been seriously challenged in the last two decades by the rise of HIV/AIDS. Still today, the interface between health policy and HIV/AIDS in South Africa is poorly understood. This book tackles different dimensions to this problem through diverse types of enquiry and analysis. As there has historically been a gap in our understanding of the impact of HIV/AIDS on health systems, it first considers empirical evidence from research on health facilities and health management structures in a health district in KwaZulu-Natal. Trends elicited through this research then form the basis of a policy analysis section, which contemplates the appropriateness of South African health policy from 1994 through to the present with respect to HIV/AIDS. To complete the picture, a more theoretical look is taken at the potential future influence of the antiretroviral therapy programme on the health system and how various health system scenarios may play out.
