Reviews

All in all, the book is well researched and structured and provides new insights into the workings of Chinese society today, and not only as far as labor issues are concerned. In addition, it provides an interesting historical overview of the development of work legislation in China. Hatla Thelle, The Danish Institute for Human Rights, The China Journal
