The number of poor people in China is huge, despite recent economic advances. This book investigates the problem of poverty in China's regions, discussing in particular the role of rural-urban migration in reducing poverty. It surveys the distribution and characteristics of poverty, examines anti-poverty initiatives by the Chinese government and includes the results of original research conducted in Shanxi, a typical province in Central China.
Mei Zhang holds a PhD Degree from the University of Cambridge. Her main areas of work are women labour, rural-urban migration and poverty, urbanisation and quantitative analyses of urban environments.
