Against the Law: Labour Protests in China’s Rustbelt and Sunbelt by Ching Kwan Lee

In a superb recent piece in the London Review of Books, Perry Anderson described this work as the following: “Although quite different in mode and scale, in power nothing like it has appeared since E.P. Thompson’s Making of the English Working Class. In fact, it could well have been called The Unmaking and Remaking of the Chinese Working Class. The product of seven years’ research and interview work on the ground, it is an ethnographic and analytic masterpiece.”  High enough praise for me.  Be sure to buy a hardcopy if you can afford it. Comrade Lee’s scholarship should be supported.
