Rezensionen
'This is in many ways a very appealing book proposal. The various authors are steeped in research on a wide variety of occupations in contemporary China, and they all appear to be based on significant ethnographic of field interview research. The editor, Prof Lee, is very highly regarded, and has a strong track record of significant publications in this area: indeed she can probably now be considered the leading person in this area.' - Andrew Walder, Stanford University

'I could go on about the fascination of these studies but let me just say that the editor, Ching Kwan Lee, is surely now the leading scholar of Chinese labor after her award winning book and her daring studies of labor protest. You should grab this book and put it into print as quickly as you can. It is a superb compilation of the very best of a new generation of China scholars' - Michael Burawoy, University of California, Berkeley

'It is a terrific project, based on exciting and thorough field research, it's in great shape, and it will be widely read. I will assign it in courses on China but also on comparative labour... It brings together outstanding new research, incisive, persuasive analysis, great stories, and refreshing, compelling style.' - Marc Blecher, Oberlin College

'This is a powerful, authoritative, wonderfully detailed, tightly argued, and, for the most part, superbly written digest of ethnographies. Its interdisciplinary cast will make it valuable for a wide range of readers, whether scholars, graduate students setting out on their own reserch in the field, or undergraduates in a large variety of courses. It serves as a milestone in the field of contemporary China studies and will surely be a model for any future work of its kind.' - Dorothy Solinger, China Information, Vol. 21 Issue 2, July 2007

'This excellent book undoubtedly contributes to a revision of our perception of the workplace in China. Those interested by labour issues will be rewarded, as will anyone actually working and living in China.' - Antoine Kernen, Chinese Cross Currents, Volume 4 Number 3, July 2007
