When we include families and loved ones in the raw demographics, HIV\/AIDS has touched a population at least equal to that of the United States. This collection of essays examines the complexity of the mobilization against HIV\/AIDS, from the perspective of social action on one hand and the state on the other.<br \/>\nWe thank Andrea Densham, Jeff Edwards, and the anonymous reviewers for their dedication and critical engagement. We also extend our gratitude to those AIDS activists and their friends and loved ones whose open participation makes<br \/>\nresearch of this kind possible.<\/p>\n<p>Meredith L. Weiss and Michael J.
