About
As China moves from a society controlling all aspects of life, including population movement, to something nearer a market economy, migration has become an urgent issue. Tens of millions of rural migrants have entered China's cities, meeting discrimination similar to that experienced by economic migrants to the West. This book looks at the reasons why people migrate, the lives of migrants and government policy towards them. It distinguishes different types of migration and looks particularly at marriage migration and the effects of migration on the lives of women.
