Livelihood Struggles and Market Reform

This paper traces the historical evolution of core changes in Chinese labour reform and worker entitlements: from the introduction of labour contracts to the promulgation of a national labour law, the demolition of work-unit socialism and its replacement with a national social security system. It also examines workers’ livelihood struggles in response to this transformation.
