This book explores the experience of China's migrant labourers in
Shanghai from anthropological, and gendered analyses, offering
extraordinary insights into the life-world of the marginalized
people. China has hundreds of millions of internal migrants coming
from the countryside to the big cities in search of fame, fortune,
or just a living. The author also examines the gender dynamics at
work, in intimacy and leisure of this marginalized, yet huge
population. With an in-depth and multidisciplinary examination of
the experience of restaurant workers in Shanghai, this book sheds
humanising new light on the experience of the megacity from the
inside and will be of direct value to policymakers, demographers,
feminist scholars, anthropologists, sociologists, and responsible
citizens.
