The material for this study consists of articles in medical journals, primarily journals like the Lancet and British Medical Journal that popularize and debate research findings and health care policy, but also journals of stricter academic style reporting research and findings.[71] We deliberately blur the difference between media texts and scientific texts. Medicine, as no other human enterprise, cannot represent a level of knowledge that can raise itself above ‘culture’ and thus address the HIV epidemic ‘objectively’ (cf. Foucault 1973). That medicine is just another social institution and an integral part of contemporary media society is not as such a problem. A problem and indeed a very lethal problem for women is however the sexism and the constructions of‘Africa’ inherent in medical accounts of male circumcision and HIV/AIDS.
