Book Review: Britain and Ireland: Popular Democracy in Japan: How Gender and Community are Changing Modern Electoral Politics

legislative intention is one thing and real-life outcomes quite another matter.This well-researched volume with numerous chapters containing whatever information can be accessed shows growing social tensions in China, especially the predicament of the millions of workers hired on short-term contracts, whose position is extremely precarious. This book indicates strongly that life in China today is driven by the most mundane incentives that are difficult to rein in or constrain by institutional means, such as the law. This magnifies the gap between official rhetoric and real-life conditions for Chinese workers. One may conclude from reading this excellent volume that China is in urgent need of redistributive policies if the country is to remain politically stable. And the Chinese government no doubt has considerable resources for the conduct of egalitarian policy making.
