Abstract:
|
Based on over 200 in-depth interviews with workers, managers, and officials across 9 Chinese cities in 5 different regions, this paper argues that regional political economy exerts an important causal influence on several other key variables in explaining Chinese laid-off workers' contentious collective action. |
