Description

Explore the complex history of labor relations in China through this detailed academic study from Routledge. In Chinese Workers: A New History, Jackie Sheehan examines the evolving relationship between workers and the Chinese Communist Party. The text provides a thorough account of various mass campaigns and social movements that shaped the political landscape of modern Asia. By analyzing significant events such as the Hundred Flowers movement (1956-7), the Cultural Revolution, and the April Fifth Movement of 1976, this book offers a deep look into worker protests. It also covers the Democracy Wall and the 1989 Democracy Movement to provide a complete historical picture. This work challenges the common perception of Chinese workers as purely conformist supporters of the Party, instead situating their actions within the broader context of Chinese political history. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in international economics and the history of modern Asia.
