Abstract
[China’s socialist proletariat has been consigned to history. In China today, there is no readily identifiable or clearly defined working class. Rather, workers, having been expelled from the Communist Party’s firm embrace and pushed off political center stage, cling to fragmented subjectivities through their memories of the recent socialist past, amidst demands placed upon them to adapt to the labor discipline of the market, and a profound and pervasive sense of normative and material uncertainty (Lee 2007, pp. 140, 153, 221–31; Solinger 2004, pp. 50–66).]
