Thesis (Ph.D.)--Harvard University, 1995.

This study analyzes the major forces promoting change in China's urban labor system during the reform era and their effect on the operation of urban labor markets. It begins with a description of China's pre-reform labor system and an overview of the broader reform environment in which China's urban labor markets began to shed their most rigid characteristics. Next, it evaluates steps taken by the Chinese government between 1980 and 1992 to revise the formal framework of labor and wage policy and regulation. The following two chapters examine in turn two fundamental changes in the economic environment which have been profoundly important in shaping the evolution of China's urban labor markets: the labor demand shock embodied in the swift expansion of non-state sector employment since the late 1970s and the labor supply shock represented by the enormous influx of rural job-seekers into China's cities since the early to mid-1980s. These chapters underscore the powerful effect on the Chinese labor system of economic forces which, though initially set in motion by government policies, have since gained a momentum all their own.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study analyzes the major forces promoting change in China's urban labor system during the reform era and their effect on the operation of urban labor markets. It begins with a description of China's pre-reform labor system and an overview of the broader reform environment in which China's urban labor markets began to shed their most rigid characteristics. Next, it evaluates steps taken by the Chinese government between 1980 and 1992 to revise the formal framework of labor and wage policy and regulation. The following two chapters examine in turn two fundamental changes in the economic environment which have been profoundly important in shaping the evolution of China's urban labor markets: the labor demand shock embodied in the swift expansion of non-state sector employment since the late 1970s and the labor supply shock represented by the enormous influx of rural job-seekers into China's cities since the early to mid-1980s. These chapters underscore the powerful effect on the Chinese labor system of economic forces which, though initially set in motion by government policies, have since gained a momentum all their own.
520 $a The principally qualitative analysis of the earlier chapters is then supplemented by quantitative analysis exploring the effect of economic reform and growth on a critical outcome of the operation of labor markets: wage levels. Provincial data from 1980 to 1992 are used to analyze changes in interregional wage differentiation and the relationship between average real wages and a variety of economic variables. The results illuminate the increasing role of market forces, particularly labor demand variables such as economic growth and foreign investment, in determining wage levels and explaining the pattern of first declining, and then sharply rising, interregional wage differentials in the 1980s and early 1990s. At the same time, the empirical results highlight the persistence of barriers to labor mobility across regions and enterprises of different ownership types. These findings suggest that the evolution of China's urban labor markets to date is marked by a combination of unprecedented flexibility as well as old and new forms of rigidity.
