	abstract = {China{\textquoteright}s transition from an injection drug-driven HIV epidemic to one primarily transmitted through sexual contact has triggered concern over the potential for HIV to move into the non-drug-injecting population. Much discussion has focused on the migrant men of China{\textquoteright}s vast {\textquoteright}floating population{\textquoteright} who are considered a high-risk group. As a result, many men who frequently engage in high-risk behaviour but are not included in this especially vulnerable group are evading HIV prevention messages. This paper highlights the socio-cultural and politico-economic factors that motivate many of China{\textquoteright}s wealthy businessmen and government officials, sometimes referred to as {\textquoteright}mobile men with money{\textquoteright}, to engage in such behaviour. Examination of the activities related to the work of these men reveals a situation where the confluence of a market-oriented economy operating within a socialist-style political system under the influence of traditional networking practices has engendered a unique mode of patron-clientelism that brings them together over shared social rituals including feasting, drinking and female-centered entertainment that is often coupled with sexual services. As a result, consideration of the socio-cultural factors influencing these men{\textquoteright}s sexual practices is important for responding to the newly emerging stage of China{\textquoteright}s HIV epidemic.},
