Description

This comprehensive study examines the urban underclass in China that has emerged since the 1990s, drawing on questionnaire and interview methodologies to provide an in-depth analysis of their lived experiences. The book investigates the mental conditions, class consciousness, migration patterns, and living difficulties faced by subaltern populations, whilst expanding traditional definitions to include deviant underclass members. Through detailed investigation of their status, the research identifies the structural and social factors contributing to their dilemmas and offers evidence-based suggestions for targeted interventions and support mechanisms. Grounded in rigorous social science research, this work provides essential insights into inequality, urban poverty, and policy approaches to aid marginalised communities in contemporary China, making it invaluable for academics, policy makers, and anyone seeking to understand the complex realities of China's most vulnerable urban populations.

Key Features

Based on questionnaire and interview approaches, the book provides empirical evidence about urban subaltern experiences and living conditions in China since the 1990s.

Expands the definition of underclass beyond the economically disadvantaged to include deviant underclass members, offering a more comprehensive social analysis.

Examines mental conditions, class consciousness, and migration patterns of the urban underclass, revealing the psychological and social dimensions of poverty.

Investigates the structural factors causing living dilemmas and provides targeted aiding mechanisms and policy recommendations to mitigate them.

Published by Routledge as part of the China Perspectives series, bringing academic rigour to contemporary Chinese social issues.

Suitable for researchers, policy makers, and scholars in sociology, anthropology, and social science studying inequality and urban development.
