migration in China itself to Chinese migration to Europe, this book
critically assesses received ideas, perceptions and theories
concerning internal and international migration. The book argues
for the emergence of a Chinese world system in which internal and
international mobility is a central and heterogenous feature. The
book presents an unusually rich case study of migration and
transnationalism of migrants from southern Zhejiang province in
Chinese and European cities, studies of rural-urban migration in
booming southern China, implementation of the birth control policy
among migrants in Beijing, discrimination and stereotypisation of
rural migrants in Shanghai, contract worker teams in Beijing, and
forced urban-rural migration during the Cultural Revolution.
