The End of Cheap Labour?

Industrial Transformation and Social Upgrading in China

About this book

Chinas wirtschaftlicher Aufstieg war eng mit der Rolle des Landes als »Werkbank der Welt« verknĂŒpft. Allerdings scheinen primĂ€r kostenorientierte und technologiearme Produktionsmodelle an ihre Grenzen zu stoßen. Die chinesische Regierung setzt daher auf die technologische Aufwertung der Produktion – doch geht mit dem Wandel auch ein Ende der billigen Arbeit einher? Die Ergebnisse dieser Studie zur LED- und Textilindustrie sind ernĂŒchternd: Soziale Verbesserungen betreffen meist nur Hochqualifizierte, wĂ€hrend sich an den GrundzĂŒgen der prekĂ€ren BeschĂ€ftigung von Arbeitsmigranten kaum etwas Ă€ndert. Diese soziale Kluft bleibt ein Hindernis fĂŒr den Umbau des chinesischen Wachstumsmodells.
