摘要

也门是阿拉伯半岛西南角的一个首都贫困国家，来自也门的三个国际医疗旅行者的案例有助于消除医疗旅游讨论中的误解。这些误解包括医疗旅游中休闲的暗示，性别和阶级的作用，以及我们轻易忽视富人的健康问题。相反，本文建议，我们应该揭示国际医疗旅行中的共性和差异，同时避免陷入概括和刻板印象。

Complicating common ideas about medical tourism: gender, class, and globality in Yemenis' international medical travel.

Three cases of international medical travelers from Yemen, a capital‐poor country in the southwest corner of the Arabian Peninsula, help to counter misconceptions within discussions of medical tourism. These misconceptions include the suggestion of leisure in medical tourism, the role of gender and class, and the ease with which we dismiss the health concerns of wealthy individuals. Instead, this article proposes, we should uncover commonalities and differences within international medical travel while avoiding slipping into generalities and stereotypical portrayals.
