Chapter Notes: Farmer — AIDS and Accusation (1992/2006) Parent note: farmer aids and accusation Preface to the 2006 Edition Farmer opens by noting that AIDS and Accusation was written "before structural violence was a term in widespread use in social science." The book was composed between 1987 and 1990, as he was simultaneously a Harvard medical student, a doctoral candidate in anthropology, and a practicing physician in Haiti's Central Plateau. The 2006 preface reflects on what changed in the intervening fourteen years: the 1991 coup that removed Aristide, the U.S. detention of HIV-positive Haitian refugees at Guantanamo, the return of Aristide, the 2004 coup, and the persistent poverty that continues to drive Haiti's AIDS epidemic.
