Rezensionen
"An exceptional work - Tiers Monde The analysis and the conclusions place the book at the forefront of a field of research that is relatively unexplored - Jorge Delman Yan's ethnographic richness allows reflection and debate on the trajectories of China's rural changes, and thus makes this an important book for scholars and students of China. - The China Journal, Issue 68 - Melissa J. Brown, University of Minnesota/Harvard University A highly valuable addition to China studies in the West. - Journal of Biosocial Sciences"
