By assessing the transition in enterprise-employee relations in China over the six decades since the founding of the nation and the three decades since the implementation of a reform and opening up policy, this book investigates these changes from three key perspectives: occupation, operation and governance. The book chiefly analyzes the unit system structure of enterprises and mechanisms such as apprentice systems inside organizations and proposes a combination of systematic governance and civic governance. Further, it investigates in detail the transition in labor relations in township, state-owned and private enterprises under the contract system, market system and project system, reviews the factors contributing to contradictions in labor relations at different periods, and puts forward options for modifying labor relations in various ways, including their system and structure.

La Chine de la premiere moitie du 20eme siecle a connu de nombreux bouleversements dont la fin des dynasties, les mouvements pour la republique, les Seigneurs de guerre, de multiples invasions ... Elle a aussi vu son milieu culturel et academique s'epanouir. Pendant cette periode, la sociologie chinoise contemporaine a pris forme, s'est developpee, et a exerce une influence non negligeable dans le monde intellectuel. La variete des approches et la qualite des recherches en sociologie ont atteint un niveau remarquable. Les travaux realises durant cette periode constituent un heritage precieux et une base solide et incontournable pour les recherches contemporaines en la matiere. Apres l'arret de toute recherche sociologique pendant presque 30 ans (les annees 50-80), il est important et interessant de faire connaitre les chercheurs qui ont bati la sociologie chinoise d'aujourd'hui, ainsi que leurs travaux, aux etudiants et chercheurs de nos jours.
