This pathbreaking book offers the first in-depth study of Chinese
labor activism during the momentous upheaval of the Cultural
Revolution. The authors explore three distinctive forms of
working-class protest: rebellion, conservatism, and economism.
Labor, they argue, was working at cross-purposes through these
three modes of militancy promoted by different types of leaders
with differing agendas and motivations. Drawing upon a wealth of
heretofore inaccessible archival sources, the authors probe the
divergent political, psychocultural, and socioeconomic strains
within the Shanghai labor movement. As they convincingly
illustrate, the multiplicity of worker responses to the Cultural
Revolution cautions against a one-dimensional portrait of
working-class politics in contemporary China.
