Sociology Professor Joel Andreas dives into his second book, Disenfranchised: The Rise and Fall of Industrial Citizenship in China (Oxford 2019), which traces radical changes that have fundamentally transformed industrial relations over the past seven decades. Drawing on a decade of field research, including interviews with both factory workers and managers, Andreas traces the changing political status of workers inside Chinese factories from 1949 to the present, carefully analyzing how much power they have actually had to shape their working conditions.
