Although the Chinese economy is growing at a very high rate, there
are massive social dislocations arising as a result of economic
restructuring. Though the scale of the problem is huge, very few
studies have examined the changes in income inequality in the late
1990s due to a lack of data on household incomes. Based on
extensive original research, this book redresses this imbalance,
examining the issue of unemployment and the problems it has brought
for the people of China. Investigating the market outcomes in
post-reform urban China, the book focuses on the relationships
between unemployment, inequality, and poverty. In addition, the
authors provide an analysis on the emerging urban labour market and
its stratified structure, job mobility, profit sharing, and the
role of social capital. Empirical analysis is supported by rich
data from nationally representative urban household and rural
migrant surveys, providing the latest picture of the widening
inequality in Chinese urban society.
