China's Internal and International Migration (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Peilin, Li; Roulleau-Berger, Laurence

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

One consequence of China's economic growth has been a massive increase in migration, both internal and external. Within China millions of rural workers have migrated to the cities. Outside China, many Chinese have migrated to other parts of the world, their remittances home often having a significant impact within China. Also, China's increasing links to other parts of the world have led to a growth in migration to China, most interestingly recently migration from Africa. Based on extensive original research, this book examines a wide range of issues connected to Chinese migration.
