Title: La gestion spirituelle du VIH/sida : parcours biographique et construction identitaire
Abstract: Spiritually coping with HIV/AIDS. Biographical portraits and building of the personality Within the framework of a study of the Agence nationale de recherches sur le sida (ANRS), a survey has been fulfilled among HIV/AIDS infected people who are spiritually involved, the scope being to understand the role and the importance of the spirituality in the building of the personality of this people. After explaining what is meant by « spiritually involved », we described three different types of spiritual journeys, relying on chosen portraits. They differ one from another because the link to religion has taken three different forms: inherited religion, religion as a cultural link, religious opposition.
