Description

Explore the evolution of traditional craftsmanship through this scholarly study from Routledge. This book provides a deep look into the economic changes within Dongyang County, Zhejiang Province. It serves as a direct follow-up to research conducted in Hong Kong during the early 1970s, focusing on the same group of artisan furniture makers and woodcarvers. Readers will observe how these specific folk craftsmen navigate and adapt to the changing socio-economic landscape of the People's Republic of China. By comparing their earlier lives as expatriate workers to their current roles in their native county, the text offers a unique perspective on flexible production and economic reform. This volume is an essential resource for those studying contemporary China, economic transitions, or the history of traditional arts and manufacturing.
