With rapid commercialization, a booming urban economy, and the relaxation of state migratory policies, over 100 million peasants, known as China's floating population, have streamed into large cities seeking employment and a better life. This book traces the profound transformation this massive flow of rural migrants has caused as it challenges Chinese socialist modes of state control.
