'An emerging generation of Chinese scholars is shedding new light on the turbulent state of labour in China. Their work is of the highest quality and engages closely with the workplace. This well-structured book draws it together to provide an authoritative and original analysis of the dynamics of power in contemporary Chinese employment.' - William Brown, Cambridge University, UK 'China at Work contains more cutting- edge findings on the world's largest factory workforce than any book of recent years. This book is an indispensable contribution to our knowledge about workers, labour conditions, power relations, and management strategies in China's state-owned, private, and foreign-owned companies.' - Anita Chan, Australian National University, Australia 'This is a refreshing collection of case studies of the Chinese workplace, featuring original research by a new generation of labour scholars. Capturing the immense diversity and rapid changes in the Chinese labour scene, this book is a useful reference for students, scholars, trade unionists, activists and policy makers.' - Ching Kwan Lee, University of California, Los Angeles, USA
