Economic reform in China has led to migration of people on a scale never before seen in the country. Since China's new industrial revolution began in the late-1970s, there has been a flow of tens of millions of surplus rural labourers and their families moving from rural to urban areas. This phenomenon has been described in terms of both a blessing for China's economic development and a threat against its social order. This volume examines the different aspects of internal Chinese migration, including a brief introduction to current research and pointers to the methodological traps that can occur in the field.

With rapid commercialization, a booming urban economy, and the relaxation of state migratory policies, over 100 million peasants, known as China's "floating population," have streamed into large cities seeking employment and a better life. This book traces the profound transformation this massive flow of rural migrants has caused as it challenges Chinese socialist modes of state control.

This book investigates domestic migration and migration intentions in China from the individual, city, and provincial levels. Since the 1990s, accompanying the rapid urbanization, an important feature of China’s social transition is its large-scale interregional migration, which has reshaped China’s economic geography and population distribution and greatly affected the socio-economic development. The floating population, migrants working and living in the destination cities without local hukou, have aroused wide public concern in the past decades. Based on China’s national population census data and China Migrants Dynamic Survey data, this book comprehensively employs statistical analysis, spatial analysis, network analysis, econometric and spatial econometric methods to analyze the spatial pattern and influencing mechanism of internal migration and migration intentions of floating population from different levels and different perspectives. The research results of this book have significant policy implications for the urban governance on the floating population. The novelty of this book is that it comprehensively investigates domestic migration and migration intentions from the individual, city and provincial levels, combining their spatial patterns and network structures. It not only provides a wealth of case studies for domestic migration research in China, but also broadens the research scope of spatial demography by employing new methods of spatial econometrics (such as MGWR and ESF). This book is suitable for undergraduates and graduates majoring in Human Geography, Regional Economics, Urban Planning and Urban Governance, as well as related researchers and practitioners.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Abstract of thesis entitled "Migration Experience of Floating Population in China: A Case Study of Women Migrant Domestic Workers in Beijing" Submitted by: GUO, Man for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in February, 2006 One of the most significant social phenomena in contemporary China is its large-scale internal migration. Millions of people, known as the 'floating population', have imposed immense influence on all aspects of the Chinese society and their migrations received extensive attention from both researchers and policy makers. Despite the proliferation of literature on the floating population, few empirical studies have been conducted to explore their migration experience, particularly that of the female migrants. To fill the research gap, this study aims to explore the migration experience of a particular group of the floating population - women migrant domestic workers. An integrative three-stage-migration framework and two variable clusters are developed to help understand the whole migration process and its influential factors. This study relies on the qualitative research methods of case study and semi-structured, in-depth interviews, in order to obtain the migrant worker's self account of their migration experience. 24 domestic workers working in Beijing were interviewed during the 2summer in 2004. Narratives from the informants indicate that although the migration experience for individual domestic worker varies, like most of the floating population, they commonly encounter the problems of unfair treatment in the work sphere and unfavorable living conditions. They are also excluded from various welfare supports in their destinations. As household servants, domestic workers are subject to more pervasive and sometimes severer exploitation over their labours. Although they benefit from the migration experience through the increased access to money and knowledge, as well as their chances to upward mobility, their institutional inferiority leaves them with few options for economic betterment and upgrade of social status. By providing invaluable qualitative accounts on the individual migrant's experience, this study helps suggest process-oriented and problem-coping strategies to facilitate the migration process of the floating population. It also aims to reveal the necessities to introduce regulations to improve the working and living conditions of the migrant workers in general and domestic workers in particular. Finally, the three-migration-stage framework and background variables lead the way to future research on the floating population that also fits the Chinese situation.

The recent unprecedented scale of Chinese migration has had far-reaching consequences. Within China, many villages have been drained of their young and most able workers, cities have been swamped by the ‘floating population’, and many rural migrants have been unable to integrate into urban society. Internationally, the Chinese have become increasingly more mobile. This Handbook provides a unique collection of new and original research on internal and international Chinese migration and its effects on the sense of belonging of migrants.
