Labour and Development in East Asia: Social Forces and Passive Revolution: summary, description and annotation

If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The Chinese Communist Partys response to the wave of factory strikes in the early summer of 2010 has raised important questions about the role that labour plays in the transformation of world orders. In contrast to previous policies of repression towards labour unrest, these recent disputes centring round wages and working conditions have been met with a more permissive response on the part of the state, as the CCP ostensibly seeks to facilitate a transition away from a model of political economy based on low-road labour relations and export dependence.

Labour and Development in East Asia shows that such inter-linkages between labour, geopolitical transformations, and states developmental strategies have been much more central to East Asias development than has commonly been recognised. By adopting an explanatory framework of the labour-geopolitics-development nexus, the book theorises and provides an historical analysis of the formation and transformation of the East Asian regional political economy from the end of the Second World War to the present, with particular reference to Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and China.

This book will be required reading for students and scholars of international relations, development studies and comparative politics.

Drawing on the concept of passive revolution, Kevin Gray successfully highlights the dialectical relationship between the subordination of labour and wider geopolitical dynamics underpinning East Asian Development. A must read for political economists!
Andreas Bieler, Professor of Political Economy,
University of Nottingham, UK
Grays account of unfolding tensions inherent in the political and ideological management of labour in Chinas capitalist revolution is theoretically sophisticated, compelling in argument and well written.
