 Sphqhv6BkbvE\n\nThe year 1949 marked a watershed in Chinese working-class 
 history. With rapid industrialization\, the policy inclination of the stat
 e brought great changes to all aspects of the working-class: their size an
 d composition\, job security\, labor insurance\, and the housing\, medical
  care\, education and cultural benefits they can enjoy. Because of the rel
 ationship of production and exploitation which is different from the class
 ical class theory\, the real existence of the working class under the plan
 ned system is often questioned. Researchers are more likely to regard it a
 s the class shaped by politics than the class subject with independent con
 sciousness. This talk is not only a reflection on the theoretical logic of
  class formation\, but also a reflection on the real historical experience
  of the Chinese working class. Based on the discussion of several controve
 rsial issues\, this study would like to find out the pattern and the path 
 of the Chinese working-class formation after 1949.
