HIV/AIDS: South African women at risk
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of AIDS Research • Authors: L Walker --- , South Africa L Gilbert --- Department of Sociology, South AfricaA previous version of this paper was presented at the AIDS in Context Conference, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, 4–7 April 2001 -
Inequalities in access to healthcare services among people living with HIV/AIDS in Nigeria
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of AIDS Research • Authors: Adeniyi Olaleye --- Economics Department, Nigeria Fidelis Ogwumike --- Economics Department, Nigeria Olanrewaju Olaniyan --- Economics Department, NigeriaThe study investigated the magnitude of social inequities in access to subsidised healthcare services among people living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) in Nigeria. Structured interviews were conducted with 1 056 PLWHA selected from 60 community based support groups in... -
The struggle for marriage: elite and non-elite weddings in rural Namibia
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Anthropology Southern Africa • Authors: Julia Pauli --- Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology, University of Hamburg, Germany Francois Dawids --- Master of the Post Office, NamibiaNamibian weddings have become lavish and expensive rituals. Recent studies have discussed how these marriage transformations are linked to late capitalism and the spread of modernisation ideologies. Much of this research concludes that marriage has become a middle class institution,... -
Social networks, gender and HIV within marriages in Kenya
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of AIDS Research • Authors: Roseanne Njiru --- Department of Sociology and Social Work, KenyaGender inequalities drive the HIV risk within marriages in Kenya, yet strategies to combat the spread of HIV are limited by their emphasis on the individual or dyadic relationship rather than the wider social-cultural relations that shape gender relations within... -
Urbanization and housing development in South Africa
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Science, Technology, Innovation and Development • Authors: Simona Totaforti --- , ItalyThe South African urban system is a significant testbed for the analysis of urban forms in emerging economies. On the one hand, the urbanization processes have similar characteristics to those found elsewhere in the world, while on the other they... -
Linear inequalities concerning the sum of the distinct parts congruent to r modulo m in all the partitions of n
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Quaestiones Mathematicae • Authors: Mircea Merca --- University Politehnica of Bucharest, RomaniaWe investigate the sum of the parts congruent to r modulo m counted without multiplicity in all the partitions of n. Considering truncated theta series, we introduce a collection of infinite families of linear inequalities involving this sum. We provide... -
Weak and strong type inequalities for Orlicz spaces
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Quaestiones Mathematicae • Authors: Louis Labuschagne --- , South AfricaWe revisit the generalisation of Calderon’s Transfer Principle as espoused in [7]. This principle is used to generate weak type maximal inequalities for ergodic operators in the setting of σ-compact locally compact Hausdorff groups acting measure-preservingly on σ-finite measure spaces... -
Two-step inertial Tseng’s extragradient method for solving quasimonotone variational inequalities
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Quaestiones Mathematicae • Authors: O.T. Mewomo --- University of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa R.N. Nwokoye --- University of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa C.C. Okeke --- University of the Witwatersrand, South AfricaWe focus on quasimonotone variational inequality problems with non-Lipschitz operator and combine some operator theory techniques to establish a weak convergent fixed point iterative method to approximate the solution of the presented problems. The convergence analysis assumes very mild conditions...
