Description

Explore a unique perspective on Chinese social structures with Cowboys and Cultivators: The Chinese of Inner Mongolia. While traditional views often define the Chinese way of life through small-scale farming and extended family labor, this Routledge publication introduces a different reality. It examines the lives of Han Chinese herders who raise dairy cows and sheep on the vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia. Based on intensive interviews and detailed surveys, this book provides a deep look into how livestock ownership creates new wealth and opportunities. It moves beyond the standard image of the village farmer to analyze how these economic shifts impact family life, gender relations, and the broader economy. By comparing the lives of herders and farmers, the authors investigate how privatization and new ways of working change the traditional Chinese way of life. This is an essential read for anyone interested in anthropology, sociology, and the changing social landscape of China.
