DESCRIPTION:In China, capitalist development since the 1980s has given rise to an 
 enormous new industrial working class. In the vast export-processing zones 
 along China's southeastern coast, countless so-called "migrant workers" or 
 "peasant workers" from interior provinces eke out a living in innumerable 
 factories. Through thirty-five years of struggle, they have gradually 
 established a foothold as part of China's new industrial working 
 class.\n\nCountering the popular myth that Chinese workers are “stealing 
 American jobs,” Striking to Survive documents a recent wave of factory 
 closures in China’s Pearl River Delta and struggles by workers there to 
 hold onto their jobs, their pensions, and their livelihoods.\n\nThe 
 struggles of these workers in China’s industrial centers are shaping the 
 future of labor and democracy not only in China but throughout the world. 
 These vivid stories of workers at factories that supply multinational 
 corporations Walmart and Uniqlo, compiled by worker-activists and 
 circulated underground, provide a unique, on-the-ground perspective on the 
 most recent wave of militancy among China’s enormous working 
 class.\n\nFree admission.\n
