Reviews
'The authors take a comprehensive approach to analyzing industrial relations in China, in the sense that this book covers the history of industrial relations, the actors in industrial relations, and the industrial relations processes in China. This book also provides detailed and systematic information about those topics. Thus, this book is a valuable volume for researchers, business persons, and lawyers who are interested in human resource management and industrial relations in China.' -- Shoichi Ito, Journal of Asian Business
'. . . this book is valuable both for those who study China's labor issues and industrial relations and for general readers interested in Chinese politics, economics and society in transition.' -- Yuchao Zhu, The China Journal
'The admirable intellectual rigour of this volume leaves none of the authors' assumptions unacknowledged or unexamined. . . The wide-ranging discussion of China's possible futures in the concluding chapter deserves the widest possible audience among China scholars, as well as specialists in industrial relations, management or development.' -- Jackie Sheehan, British Journal of Industrial Relations
'The three authors have written the best and most comprehensive book on China's industrial relations to date. . . the richness of the evidence and analysis regarding China's labour laws and the institutional framework of Chinese industrial relations is reason enough to purchase and read this book.' -- Anita Chan, The Journal of Industrial Relations
