From the Editor

Dear JCTR Bulletin Readers:

As we continue confronting a lot of challenges in Malawi and Zambia as well as Africa as a whole, some of them appearing insurmountable, we at the JCTR feel honoured and delighted to assemble material for you, our readers in the quarterly Bulletin.  Materials that try to bring to the fore various issues -- theological, economic, political, social, etc.  In this issue, of prominence are the three articles on HIV/AIDS

One of the articles raises fundamental but hitherto unexplored areas of explanation surrounding the HIV/AIDS pandemic.  At the same time igniting further explorations and/or responses.  The issues being raised are more of a departure from the traditional ''group thinking'' approach that has characterised analyses of the HIV/AIDS problem.

DEVELOPMENT AS UTOPIA

Perhaps one of the greatest disillusionment in the fight against the challenges confronting us in Malawi and Zambia and the whole of Africa is the failure to realise development -- development as freedom, improvement in living conditions of people and realisation of the dignity of the human person

Take a telescopic hind view, for instance, one would not need a lot of effort to realise that there has been little or no attainment development.  While some parts of the world experienced massive advances unparalleled in world history during the last two decades of the 20^th century, Zambia, Malawi and many other parts of Africa were in a developmental slide.
