The danwei, or work unit, occupies a central place in Chinese
society; at one time it was so entrenched in people's daily life
that while one could be without a job, one could not be without a
danwei. With outstanding contributors from various disciplines,
this volume, a systematic study of the danwei system, addresses
three sets of questions from historical and comparative
perspectives:
-- What are the origins of the danwei and how did the danwei system
become institutionalized?
-- Is it unique to China?
-- What role does the danwei play and has it changed since the
launching of the post-Mao reforms?
In addressing these questions. the contributors make a
contribution to both Chinese studies and comparative studies of
industrial organization and the transition from state
socialism.
