{"product_id":"social-organization-of-disease-hardback","title":"Social Organization of Disease - Hardback","description":"\u003cp\u003eEmpirically, this book is a case-study analysis of dissolution processes in German AIDS organizations. Indeed, why is it that civic organizers start out with a commitment to a cause but end up dissolving their organization? This question is exactly what Kleres seeks to tackle within \u003ci\u003eThe Social Organization of Disease.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFocusing on the emotional bases of dissolved German AIDS organizations to develop a typology of civic action and organizing, Kleres presents a perspective on non-profit organizations that analyses organizational development through the emotional sense making of individual organizers, within the light of larger political processes and cultural contexts. To this end, this volume develops and applies a new methodology for researching emotions empirically, expanding the scope of narrative analysis. However, parallel to this,\u003ci\u003e The Social Organization of Disease \u003c\/i\u003ealso explores how shifting discursive processes establish emotional climates and thus impact on state policies and the evolution of AIDS organizing. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book would appeal to sociologists and political scientists working in the field of social movements and non-profit organisations: but it would also appeal to those who are interested in the sociology of emotions. It would potentially be of interest to non-profit scholars who consider community-based organizations, volunteerism and advocacy, and secondarily, to medical sociologists interested in AIDS service organizations. Sociology, International relations, Social Work, Political Science. May be of interest for NGO-activists and\/or employees and leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45547982749934,"sku":"9781138898042","price":227.2,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9781138898042.jpg?v=1720257858","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/social-organization-of-disease-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
