"This dissertation consists of three essays on how leaders' pursuit of office shape their countries' military and economic relations with other states. The first essay shows that leaders often return to office after some time out of power. Leader comebacks are most common and most strongly related to past performance in parliamentary democracies. The essay provides novel explanations for why parliamentary democracies are more often victorious in war and less prone to democratic breakdown. It also implies that research on leader reputations should consider whether a leader has previously held office. The second essay analyzes how leaders with a military background may use foreign policy to prolong their tenure. Citizens value former soldiers' expertise in military affairs only if their nation faces military threats. Consequently, under certain conditions, leaders with a military background have an incentive to pursue a hawkish policy and raise the electoral value of their foreign policy expertise. Empirical tests confirm that in political regimes with few militarily competent candidates, former soldiers are more likely to initiate disputes during economic troubles. I discuss how this theory can be applied to other forms of political violence. The third essay studies Turkey's foreign aid program. I find that the determinants of Turkish aid have varied over time and between different types of aid. Interestingly, Turkey began to give more humanitarian aid to Muslim nations after the moderate Islamist AKP government came to power. Research on foreign aid should incorporate donor government preferences and transnational cultural ties"--Page v.

How the rise of HIV in India resulted in government protections for gay groups, transgender people, and sex workers This original ethnographic research explores the relationship between the HIV/AIDS epidemic and the rights-based struggles of sexual minorities in contemporary India. Sex workers, gay men, and transgender people became visible in the Indian public sphere in the mid-1980s when the rise of HIV/AIDS became a frightening issue. The Indian state started to fold these groups into national HIV/AIDS policies as “high-risk” groups in an attempt to create an effective response to the epidemic. Lakkimsetti argues that over time the crisis of HIV/AIDS effectively transformed the relationship between sexual minorities and the state from one that was focused on juridical exclusion to one of inclusion. The new relationship then enabled affected groups to demand rights and citizenship from the Indian state that had been previously unimaginable. By illuminating such tactics as mobilizing against a colonial era anti-sodomy law, petitioning the courts for the recognition of gender identity, and stalling attempts to criminalize sexual labor, this book uniquely brings together the struggles of sex workers, transgender people, and gay groups previously studied separately. A closely observed look at the machinations behind recent victories for sexual minorities, this book is essential reading across several fields.

Europe's "Black Death" contributed to the rise of nation states, mercantile economies, and even the Reformation. Will the AIDS epidemic have similar dramatic effects on the social and political landscape of the twenty-first century? This readable volume looks at the impact of AIDS since its emergence and suggests its effects in the next decade, when a million or more Americans will likely die of the disease. The Social Impact of AIDS in the United States addresses some of the most sensitive and controversial issues in the public debate over AIDS. This landmark book explores how AIDS has affected fundamental policies and practices in our major institutions, examining: How America's major religious organizations have dealt with sometimes conflicting values: the imperative of care for the sick versus traditional views of homosexuality and drug use. Hotly debated public health measures, such as HIV antibody testing and screening, tracing of sexual contacts, and quarantine. The potential risk of HIV infection to and from health care workers. How AIDS activists have brought about major change in the way new drugs are brought to the marketplace. The impact of AIDS on community-based organizations, from volunteers caring for individuals to the highly political ACT-UP organization. Coping with HIV infection in prisons. Two case studies shed light on HIV and the family relationship. One reports on some efforts to gain legal recognition for nonmarital relationships, and the other examines foster care programs for newborns with the HIV virus. A case study of New York City details how selected institutions interact to give what may be a picture of AIDS in the future. This clear and comprehensive presentation will be of interest to anyone concerned about AIDS and its impact on the country: health professionals, sociologists, psychologists, advocates for at-risk populations, and interested individuals.
