Spanning the whole of the twentieth century, How China Works
examines the labour issues surrounding the workplace in China in
both the Republican and People's Republic epochs. The international
team of contributors treat China's twentieth-century revolution as
an industrial revolution, stressing that China's recent emergence
as the new workshop of the world was a gradual change, and not a
recent phenomena led by external forces.
Providing the reader with extensive ethnographic research on
topics such as culture and community in the workplace, the
rural-urban divide, industrialization, subcontracting and
employment practices, How China Works really does ground the study
of Chinese work in the daily interactions in the workplace, the
labour process and the micropolitics of work.
