Description

Explore the complex landscape of Chinese labor relations with this academic study from Routledge. This book provides an early examination of how state workers organized protests against privatization efforts in China. It investigates how workers used the concept of "workers democracy" to navigate and struggle against the new social relations of work created by privatization-oriented policies. Readers will learn how the state utilized this specific discourse during the 1990s to reduce social obligations previously held by the Party and enterprises. Philion examines the tension between state workers and the shift toward market-based faith. This text is an essential resource for those studying the sociological and political shifts within East Asian history and the evolving dynamics of state socialism.
