- Abstract
"The war on terrorism has drawn attention to non conventional threats to security, even as it led to conventional warfare in the case of the attack on Iraq. HIV/AIDS is arguably an even greater threat to security, with the effect of destabalising the social and economic order to the extent that the very survival of entire nations is at stake. This paper examines both the security implications of AIDS, and the various international responses aimed at slowing its spread and mitigating its impacts."
