Examining Chinese male migrant workers' identity formation, this book explores their experience of rural-urban migration and their status in an emerging dislocated urban working class. Focusing on issues of gender and class, it provides an in-depth analysis of how these men make sense of their new lives in a modernizing post-Mao China.
