Description:

Published on the eve of the 40th anniversary of the beginning of reform and opening up, the 19th volume of the Green Book of Population and Labor pays tribute to achievements over that period, assesses lessons learned, and looks ahead. The reader will find not just the latest data and statistics pertaining to China’s employment situation, income distribution and labor migration trends but also in-depth analyses of how we got here. How rapid development of the Internet and the digital economy will shape the future trajectory of China’s population and labor development receives critical attention. This is also the first volume in this series that devotes an entire chapter to Universal Basic Income, its theoretical genesis, results of trials in other countries, and its relevance in the Chinese context.
