Criminology

Option 1. The dark side of Medical Tourism: Transplant Tourism

This session investigates the history of medical tourism and social science research into the consequences of this on the host country and the local population contemporarily. We carefully consider the issues raised in relation to what has been termed ‘transplant tourism’. Concerns relating to donors; exploitation and vulnerability. We explore strategies employed by the international community and nation states to address these concerns and evaluate if this is enough.
