摘要

At the close of the third decade of the AIDS epidemic, there is renewed interest in the once dormant field of gay men's health. Resurfacing in the 1990s, the term "gay men's health" has cropped up in numerous arenas including government policy, academic literature, popular press, and community organising. In this dissertation, I explore the social construction of gay men's health. I specifically draw on gay men's health literature and interview talk not as a resource for what they can tell us about the health of gay men, but as data. Using social constructionism and discourse analysis, I analyse these data to explore (a) how the disciplinary practices of gay men's health are constructed in the academic literature and (b) how the health of gay men is constructed in talk.;In Part II, I report on the findings from analyses of interview talk about the health of gay men. In particular, I explore two salient accounts in gay men's health: substance abuse and HIV/AIDS. I show that the interviewees harness these accounts to manage their accountability for engaging in the very behaviours that gay men's health seeks to prevent. I also show that the interviewees are explicitly concerned with avoiding individualised explanations for their health. In the conclusion, I summarise the findings in relation to the research questions and discuss the implications of my research for constructionist and discursive research, gay men's health, and gay oppression, and I offer suggestions for future research in gay men's health.;The findings are divided into two sections. In Part I, I explore how the health of gay men is constructed in the literature and how these constructions promote particular ideologies, as well as theoretical, and epistemological interests. First, I explore the types of claims about the health of gay men reported in the literature and how they reveal a firm commitment to positivist-empiricism and the scientific method. Second, by highlighting constructions of gay oppression, gay oppression as a determinant of health, and health interventions directed toward gay men, I show how gay men's health is fundamentally individualistic.
