China's embrace of globalisation and global integration which was demonstrated so vividly during the 2008 Olympics. This book focuses on how All China Federation of Trade Unions (ACFTU) is reforming and argues that it is the dependence of primary level trade unions on the employers which is the main obstacle to effective union work.

This book explores the transformation of employment relations, the rise of worker protest and the reform of trade union practice to ask how successfully the state-socialist trade unions have adapted to their new role of representing the rights and interests of workers.
