Analiso, neste artigo, os processos de formação identitária na sua relação com as formas de mobilização civil e associação voluntária no contexto da epidemia. Esses processos têm sido operados por meio de fatores como gênero, identidade sexual e doença. Priorizo a dimensão das identidades relacionadas à saúde e doença (identidades clínicas), o que envolve, por um lado, processos culturais e dinâmicas sociais mais gerais de estigmatização e de violência simbólica; por outro lado, a manutenção de estruturas de saúde e, ainda mais, respostas e demandas criadas socialmente. Meu principal problema analítico era saber como a epidemia da AIDS envolvia ou se configurava por meio de modelos particulares de identidade. Assim, a pesquisa abordou a emergência, a manutenção e o antagonismo entre diferentes processos e modelos de formação identitária, particularmente sobre os modos em que as identidades são socialmente circuladas, dispostas ou operadas.
I discuss some processes of identity formation in relation to local forms of civil mobilization and voluntary association within the context of the AIDS epidemic since the mid-1980s. These processes have been maintained through different factors, such as gender, sexual identity and illness. I focus on a range of identities associated to health and illness (clinical identities). On the one hand, they involve broad cultural processes and social dynamics of stigmatization and symbolic violence. On the other hand, they involve the maintenance of health structures, but also social responses and demands. My major analytical question was how a social process caused by the predicament of the AIDS epidemic has contructed particular models of identity. Therefore this research focuses on the emergence, the maintenance and the conflicting relations between different processes and models of identity formation, particularly on the ways in which identities are socially circulated and performed
