Migrant workers are an inevitable issue that has accompanied China’s socioeconomic transformation, and has a direct bearing on the country’s social and economic progress, and stability.

Breaking away from the conventional research methodology, this book examines the trend of China’s migrant workers as a social and economic phenomenon, teases out its pattern, proposes the establishment of a social support system for migrant workers in light of China’s socialist market economy, and provides a solid theoretical fulcrum for China’s central government to develop its macroeconomic policy.
