What is the social structure of Chinese society in the 21st century? How should China address the problem of migrant workers? How can China form a modern society? These key sociological issues are some of the topics this book covers. This book is a collection of the research articles and lectures that Dr. Lu Xueyi, the former Head of the Institute of Sociology at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, has published since the 1980s. The author discusses the social structure, social stratification, social construction, and development of contemporary Chinese society. Arguing that the gap between economic and social development has become the major social issue facing modern China, the author advocates paying close attention to the country’s social structure and the growth of the middle class. The book will be of interest for all scholars and students of Sociology and Chinese Studies.

Lu Xueyi graduated from the Department of Philosophy of Peking University in 1962 and from the Institute of Philosophy of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS). He was also the research fellow of the Institute of Sociology of the CASS and an Elected Honorary Member of the CASS in 2006.
