"Labor Relations in China
Labor Relations
The concepts of labor management and labor relations as they are understood in the Western World are basically unrealized in China today, although that situation is changing rapidly, and, most experts agree, will probably change more as China become fully vested as a World Trade Organization member.
Availability of Labor
According to a special report on labor in China, as of June 1, 2000, there were more than 200 million people earning work wages, and half of them are affiliated with labor unions. However, those wages typically average $20 to $30 U.S. a week. Likewise, most of the available labor is moving to the cities along the coasts, where the wages are higher, sometimes reaching $400 a month. There is, the ..."

The paper stresses that, since the late 1970s, China has relaxed controls and joined the worldwide globalization movement resulting in an explosion of international trade.
From the Paper
"For centuries China kept to itself, feeling no need for communication or trade with the rest of the world. As Emperor Ch'ien Lung wrote to England's King George III in 1793: "... Our ways have no resemblance to yours ... we possess all things. I set no value on objects strange or ingenious, and have no use for your country's manufactures." Chinese attitudes remained very much unchanged from this point of view for almost two more centuries. However, the last twenty-five years, since the late 1970s, have seen an explosion of international trade with China, as it has relaxed controls and joined the worldwide globalization movement."

From the Paper
"Again, China?s inability to keep up with growing industrialization and as a result growing demand for resources such as electricity can result in a dampening effect on growth, if not addressed. Another consequence of China?s rapid economic growth has been severe environmental pollution and China now accounting for over 13% of the world?s carbon emissions. Failure to check this will lead to growing health care problems, which may add to the burden of providing for the weaker sections of society."

Abstract
This paper takes a look at Pakistan-China bilateral relations. The paper discusses how despite ideological differences, the rationale for Pakistan seeking close bilateral relations with China is obvious. The paper analyzes the reasons why China decided to reciprocate and discusses main factors that helped to forge Pakistan-China bilateral relations from the 1950s onwards.
From the Paper
"China had nothing preventing it from establishing strong ties with Pakistan but just because it was possible didn't imply any necessity to pursue the cause. To understand what pushed China into a friendship that -over the years- has been considered by some to be the next best thing to brotherhood, the geo-political labyrinth that China found itself in during the three decades after the revolution must be examined.

Abstract
This paper discusses the trade patterns between the United States and China throughout the years. The paper examines the history of China as a government, particularly as a political and economic power in the Asian region. The paper explains that the history of trade between the two countries can be traced best through three periods in history, which may also be identified as the three phases of China's establishment and development of trade relations with the United States. These phases are explored in the paper and include early trade relations between the two countries in the first century AD, the period after the collapse of the Socialist experiment in Asia, and the integration of China into the world market.
From the Paper
"The first phase involves early trade relations between the two countries in the first century AD, a period wherein the barter system was in operation. During this period, US has yet to be known as an independent nation, and was simply referred to as the Americas. Trade between China and the Americas simply involved the exchange of essential goods that each country had-China with its supply of silk, gun powder, and porcelain, and the Americas with its staple foodstuffs. In this phase, trade was in its crudest form, and would be hampered with the increasing level of isolation that China had imposed upon itself through the coming years. Thus, after the first phase, trade relations between the two countries lagged, and eventually became non-existent, especially with the development of China in the early- and mid-20th century as a Communist country."

"SHOULD THE UNITED STATES PRESSURE CHINA POLITICALLY? A POSITION PAPER

Many issues are the subjects of dispute between the US and ..."

An overview of Chinese labor laws.

Abstract
This paper discusses the Chinese labor laws. The paper examines such legal and economic issues as the Chinese minimum wage, overtime, maximum amount of hours allowed in a work week, retirement, and benefits. The paper explores how these issues relate to gender equality, age discrimination, child labor, disabled workers, turnover rate, and the unemployment rate.
From the Paper
"Chinese law does not set an official, uniform, national minimum wage, ostensibly to reflect the vastly different expenses of living in various provinces. Instead, it allows local governments to determine their own standards on minimum wages. But although China has no official flat minimum wage, and this varies by province (causing a certain amount of consternation between urban and rural areas and the wage rate discrepancy,) to give a rough idea of how minimum wages are calculated, in a story about new hourly minimum wage regulations in Zhangzhou (Fujian) comes the formula for calculating such wages. "The hourly minimum wage standard = [(the monthly minimum wage 20.92 8) * (1+ the proportion of the premium paid by the enterprise for each worker's retirement and basic medical insurance)] * (1+ fluctuation coefficient). The fluctuation coefficient takes into account the differences between temporary or casual workers and full-time personnel with regard to stability, working conditions and the intensity of the job, and the difference in welfare provided.

Abstract
This paper discusses how following World War II, the British economy, its social structures, and its infrastructure, were all considerably damaged by the years of war over the European continent. Unions, as Dorfman points out, entered the post-World War II era as one of the nation's policy focal points in what would otherwise have been a political vacuum (par.1). It further discusses how in the decades following the war, Unions provided the citizenry, in the form of workers, with adequate representation within the structures of government and ensured that many policies and programs were enacted that would ensure not only work related rights and assurance but also social programs. The Unions within Britain for three decades held considerable sway over policy decisions as well as policy formulation.

From the paper:
"In the past, the U.S. has shared benevolent, if at times, uncertain, ties with China and Taiwan. Profitable trade with the Q?ing dynasty in the 1700?s for opium, tea and coal let subsequent 19th century administrations to continue with Sino-engagement through an ?Open Door Policy.? U.S. forces even fought alongside the Republic of China (ROC) against Japanese forces during World War II. However, in five short decades, 200 years of close ties have unraveled due to ideological differences. The People?s Republic of China (PRC) and the U.S. have pursued divergent roads to civil society. Communism and a command economy have monopolized China, while democracy and capitalism have absorbed America. The U.S. needs to form a constructive relationship with China for several reasons."

"At the current moment, the United States of America enjoys a freedom unique to herself, superpower status. There is no other country that can match America?s military or economy. This certainty creates an arrogance within the ranks of the American government that influences her foreign policy. American truths such as democracy, capitalism, individual freedoms, and inalienable human rights blinds the eyes of the government in reference to foreign policies with countries such as China that have opposite ideologies."

Abstract
This paper provides an evaluation of future international trading prospects between China, the United States and other countries through the event of the visit made by Chinese president Jiang Zemin?s to the U.S. in October, 2002. The development of political relations and foreign trade between China and the U.S. in the past few decades is analysed through a review of the developments in trading for both China and the U.S., the improvement of political and foreign trade relations between the two countries, the U.S. investment in China, China?s entry into the World Trade Organisation and the recent improvement of political relations between the two countries. A recommendation for further improvement of the relationship between the two nations is also given.
From the Paper
"Except for the period of rapid growth of Sino-Soviet trade in the 1950s, China, in the Maoist era, pursued relatively autarkic trade and financial policies. During the 1960s, when the trade of both developing and industrialised economies was growing rapidly, China?s trade was actually shrinking in real terms. Initially, that was a response to the severing of the Sino-Soviet economic relationship and the collapse of the domestic economy as a result of the economically ill-fated strategy of the Great Leap Forward. But later, as domestic growth resumed, it reflected the autarky of the Cultural Revolution, when all but one of China?s ambassadors were recalled from their posts and China turned inwards."

Abstract
This paper assesses the nature of the relationship between China and the international community. It looks at what is expected of China in the coming years by the U.S.A. what China can expect from itself. It discusses whether China will eventually subjugate itself to international norms or whether they will challenge the existing international system, which is dominated by United States principles. It also examines the power the United States wields over China and how effective it is. Examples of Chinese challenges to U.S. power relations are shown as well as examples of U.S. attempts at controlling China's destiny.
From the Paper
"'The People's Republic of China (PRC) is more integrated into, and more cooperative within, regional and global political and economic systems than ever in its history.' Despite this, there is considerable apprehension coming from the United States as to what the increase in economic, political and military power in China will mean. The question as to whether China is playing by the 'international rules' or, if it is not, whether it will in the medium term, is a continual headache for western politicians. China is now combined with Hong Kong and is significantly integrated with the economy of Taiwan. The economic success of recent years has meant that China has the production capabilities and trade options to become a major superpower."
