Description

Explore the evolving landscape of the Chinese labor market with this detailed study from the Routledge Contemporary China Series. This book provides a deep look into the diversity and dynamism of modern workplaces, offering insights into how employment is transforming across the nation. Drawing on extensive recent research, the text examines various sectors to show how market-oriented human resource management is spreading through both public and private organizations. It addresses the complex reality of the workforce, including the rise of employment rights and the local variations in regulatory control. Readers will gain an understanding of the tension between government goals for a harmonious society and the actual experiences of workers. The book also investigates the economic contradictions facing the country, such as the coexistence of skilled labor shortages and widespread underemployment. This is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, or the economic shifts within China's changing social structure.
