Description

Explore the complex landscape of labor NGOs in contemporary China with this scholarly work from the Routledge Contemporary China Series. This book investigates how labor activists navigate environments where the limits of state tolerance are often unclear. By focusing on labor NGOs in South China and the role of Western funding agencies, the text examines the dynamics of state control in post-socialist China since the 1970s. As rapid economic and social transformations have changed the region, they have also created an environment defined by uncertainty. This book uses uncertainty as an analytical space to understand the emergence of new practices and discourses. It provides a deep look into how social transformations influence activism and the ways in which organizations operate under shifting political conditions. This is an essential resource for those studying sociology, anthropology, and Chinese political economy.
