中国的艾滋病疫情正从注射毒品为主转变为主要通过性接触传播,这引发了人们对艾滋病病毒可能进入非注射毒品人群的担忧。很多讨论都集中在中国庞大的流动人口中的男性,他们被认为是一个高风险群体。因此,许多经常从事高风险行为但不属于这一特别脆弱群体的男子正在逃避艾滋病毒预防信息。这篇论文强调了促使中国许多富有的商人和政府官员(有时被称为“有钱的流动男人”)从事这种行为的社会文化和政治经济因素。对与这些人的工作有关的活动的考察揭示了这样一种情况:在社会主义风格的政治制度下,在传统网络实践的影响下,市场经济的融合产生了一种独特的庇护-庇护主义模式,使他们在共同的社会仪式上聚集在一起,包括宴会、饮酒和以女性为中心的娱乐活动,这些活动通常与性服务相结合。因此,考虑影响这些男性性行为的社会文化因素对于应对中国艾滋病毒流行的新阶段非常重要。
China’s transition from an injection drug-driven HIV epidemic to one primarily transmitted through sexual contact has triggered concern over the potential for HIV to move into the non-drug-injecting population. Much discussion has focused on the migrant men of China’s vast ‘floating population’ who are considered a high-risk group. As a result, many men who frequently engage in high-risk behaviour but are not included in this especially vulnerable group are evading HIV prevention messages. This paper highlights the socio-cultural and politico-economic factors that motivate many of China’s wealthy businessmen and government officials, sometimes referred to as ‘mobile men with money’, to engage in such behaviour. Examination of the activities related to the work of these men reveals a situation where the confluence of a market-oriented economy operating within a socialist-style political system under the influence of traditional networking practices has engendered a unique mode of patron-clientelism that brings them together over shared social rituals including feasting, drinking and female-centered entertainment that is often coupled with sexual services. As a result, consideration of the socio-cultural factors influencing these men’s sexual practices is important for responding to the newly emerging stage of China’s HIV epidemic.
