| Description of the topic
It is well known that China is one of the most powerful and promising countries all around the world. Not only for its rapid economic growth over the last few decades also manufacturing power as “the world factory”, China has accumulated its national power. Based on various natural resources and large areas of land, a massive supply of labor made a contribution to the “rise of China.” Currently it has the largest population in the world, being estimated more than 1.3 billion and implying that there are still huge potential labor forces within the country. The goal of the thesis is to analyze the labor market in China. At first, it will focus on how China’s labor market has developed since its economic reform era. During the period, China has achieved remarkable economic development by adopting market economy mechanism. The reform also affects the labor market in the various ways. In the main section of this paper, the analysis of the labor market will be handled from three different perspectives: employment, wage, and higher education by province, respectively. One of the outstanding problems emerged during the last few decades in China is regional disparity; therefore, the paper will investigate three factors by region. Bibliography Meng, X. (2012).
