Thesis (MPhil (Sociology and Social Anthropology))--Stellenbosch University, 2008. / The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the significance of words and their
meaning in knowledge development and perception formulation. Meanings
attached to the AIDS epidemic are used to test people’s understanding of this
disease. The study is also aimed at demonstrating how false perceptions and
wrong concepts are likely to occur if the problem of meaning is not addressed.
