Internationalisation and moral economies in healthcare: NHS exporting and the English patient

The internationalisation framework presented in this article offers a platform for future research that can shed light on the contexts, visions, policies and contestations the emerge as healthcare institutions respond to processes of globalisation. It will be important to avoid uncritical approaches to research and policy by examining not just what forms of internationalisation find favour, and their basis in geographical and racialised hierarchies, but also how approaches to healthcare internationalisation impact inequalities within and between nations.

Abstract

The internationalisation framework presented in this article offers a platform for future research that can shed light on the contexts, visions, policies and contestations the emerge as healthcare institutions respond to processes of globalisation. It will be important to avoid uncritical approaches to research and policy by examining not just what forms of internationalisation find favour, and their basis in geographical and racialised hierarchies, but also how approaches to healthcare internationalisation impact inequalities within and between nations.
