China on the Move cover

China on the Move offers a new and more thorough explanation of migration, which integrates knowledge from geography, population studies, sociology and politics; to help us understand the processes of social, political, and economic change associated with powerful migration streams so essential to Chinese development.

Using a large body of research, clear and attractive illustrations (maps, tables, and charts) of findings based on census, survey and field data, and selected qualitative material such as migrants’ narratives, this book provides an updated, systematic, empirically rich, multifaceted and lively analysis of migration in China.

"Fan’s book both provides a summary description of some of the basic facts about migration in China and helps shed light on some aspects of China’s migration experience that are not as well known. It is useful for any scholars interested in knowing more about either labormarket institutions in China or the process of migrant labor market evolution in China." -- Journal of Regional Science, VOL. 50, NO. 3, 2010
