从市场化程度和人口流动性看艾滋病问题——以广东省为例

Marketization,Population Mobility and HIV/AIDS——Based on Guangdong Province

从全球角度看,越是贫困的地区或国家,艾滋病问题越严重。在中国大陆,艾滋病问题最严重的省区一共有六个。其中五个属于综合性社会经济发展水平较低的省区,广东省是唯一的例外。针对广东的艾滋病问题,参照三个社会经济指数加以分析。影响广东省艾滋病疫情的两个决定性要素是较高的市场开放程度和大量外来人口所面临的健康风险。

Viewed from a global perspective, the more impoverished an area or a country is, the more serious the problem of HIV/AIDS becomes. In China, six provinces have been more affected by HIV/AIDS than other provinces and five of these six provinces axe indeed characterized by low lev- els of social and economic development,but Guangdong is an exception. To understand this Guang- dong puzzle,the present article addresses three socio -economic factors,and it argues that a higher degree of the province＇ s marketization and a higher HIV risk among the province＇ s huge population of migrant workers,might contribute to the high level of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Guangdong.
