Campbell, Angela (Internal/Supervisor) Kenya has a rich and controversial history of HIV vaccine-related research and incidents between researchers, participants and authorities have highlighted pertinent and endemic ethical, legal, social and political issues. The role of the state during these events and in wider vaccine research is unexamined and misunderstood; yet, the state is a deeply involved and dominant party. My thesis provides a coherent explanation of the role of the state in vaccine research and links recurrent ethical issues to the multiple and competing interests the state has in this activity. I develop multiple roles for the state as a Facilitator, Guardian, Participant, Regulator, Researcher and Sponsor based on a common understanding of the key parties in biomedical ethics. These roles explain the complex state participation and are developed and shaped by crucial influential factors in the environment surrounding HIV vaccine research. Le Kenya a une histoire riche et controversée à l'égard de la recherche relative au vaccin contre le VIH. En effet, plusieurs incident et conflits entre les chercheurs, les participants et les autorités mettent en évidence les difficultés éthiques, légales, sociales et politiques de la recherche d'un vaccin. Le rôle de l'Etat au cours de ces évènements et en ce qui a trait a la recherche de vaccin en général est non examine et mal compris, et pourtant, l'Etat est une partie profondément impliquée et dominante. Ma thèse propose une explication cohérente du rôle de l'E tat dans la recherche d'un vaccin et relie les difficultés éthiques récurrentes aux multiplies intérêts concurrents que l'Etat détient a l'egard de cette activité. En se basant sur une compréhension commune des principales parties impliquées en éthique biomédicale, je développe de multiples rôles pour l'Etat en tant que facilitateur, gardien, participant, régulateur, chercheur et mémé commanditaire de l'activité. Ces rôles, expliquant la participant complexe de l'Etat sont façonnes par des facteurs cruciaux et influents provenant de l'environnement qui entoure la recherche d'un vaccin contre le VIH. En effet, l'implémentation de ces rôles créé un environnement propice aux conflits et aux difficultés éthiques.
