      abstract = {After reviewing related theories on stigmatisation of  people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA), this book applies  social exclusion theory, actor theory and stigma theory to  the study of social mechanisms of stigmatisation of PLWHA  in China to show the influence and mechanism of  stigmatisation on them, and tries to construct the policy  framework to tackle stigmatisation from the perspective of  welfare pluralism. Qualitative analysis was used and data  was obtained during the field interview. Thirty PLWHA and  seventeen healthy people (non-infected people and staff of  ASO Service Organizations) were selected by using random  sampling and snowball sampling for semi-structured depth  interviews. The research examines the treatments and living  conditions of those PLWHA, aiming to explore the influence  of HIV on them in education, employment, medical care,  economy, welfare and social relations. The book is intended  for graduate students, researchers interested in this field  and relevant policymakers.},
