      It’s an overly broad statement tbh as these things are always a confluence of social pressures but yes, there’s a decent amount of scholarship specifically on that, public responses to the AIDs crisis both in the 80’s and in areas still suffering from it, the rise and fall of classical Bacchanalian-type cults, etc.
