国际社会对埃博拉病毒的反应引发了激烈的争论,即女性和性别在全球卫生治理中的明显隐蔽性。本文发展了关于性别盲目、护理和男性偏见的女权主义研究,以埃博拉病毒为例,探讨全球健康如何依赖于担任正式和非正式护理角色的女性明显的自由劳动,但在政策和实践中却让女性看不见。这篇文章通过展示妇女和性别在有关埃博拉病毒的叙述、控制疾病的紧急和长期战略以及世界卫生组织和世界银行的卫生系统加强计划中的明显隐蔽性来做到这一点。
The international response to Ebola brings into stark contention the conspicuous invisibility of women and gender in global health governance. Developing feminist research on gender blindness, care and male bias, this article uses Ebola as a case to explore how global health rests on the conspicuous free labour of women in formal and informal care roles, yet renders women invisible in policy and practice. The article does so by demonstrating the conspicuous invisibility of women and gender in narratives on Ebola, emergency and long-term strategies to contain the disease, and in the health system strengthening plans of the World Health Organization and World Bank.
