Description

Explore the complex dynamics of the modern Chinese labor market with this academic study from the Routledge Contemporary China Series. As unemployment becomes a significant political issue in China, particularly following the global financial crisis, this book provides a deep look into how the government responds to these challenges. This work examines how the Chinese government experiments with policy initiatives inspired by Western models. It presents a compelling argument that while China is not a liberal democracy, it has adopted neo-liberal forms of governance to manage unemployment. These new methods operate alongside traditional Chinese modes of governance, creating a unique landscape for job seekers. Ideal for students, researchers, and professionals in anthropology and sociology, this book analyzes the urgency and novelty of the current employment situation. It offers a detailed examination of the initiatives used to address the evolving needs of the workforce in a post-socialist context.
