The politics of spatial divisions and the living environment -- The politics of nationality, ethnicity, and status : the case of the factory office -- The making of Chinese industrial workers -- Korean management in a Chinese workshop : economic globalization and the changing factory regime -- Pitfalls of globalization : local government and its impact on the factory regime -- Clash of the global and the local -- Globalizing capital and the bleak future of Chinese workers.
This title draws on fieldwork in a multinational corporation (MNC) in Qingdao, China, and delves into the power dynamics at play between Korean management, Chinese migrant workers local-level Chinese government officials, and Chinese local gangs. This ethnography demonstrates how a particular MNC struggled with the pressure to be increasingly profitable while negotiating the clash of Korean and Chinese cultures traditions, and classes on the factory floor.
