Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Im Sommer letzten Jahres kam es zu einer Streikwelle in der Autoindustrie in China, die von jungen Wanderarbeitern getragen wurde. Die "zweite Generation"der über 200 Millionen "mingong" tritt selbstbewusst auf und viele wollen nicht mehr auf ihre Dörfer zurückgehen. Dieser Kurs beschäftigt mit den Lebens- und Arbeitsbedingungen der jungen Männer und Frauen in den Weltmarkt-Fabriken, Baustellen, Haushalten und auch der Sexindustrie. Dabei soll auch die Frage behandelt werden, wie der Staat und die urbane Gesellschaft auf die "mingong" reagieren. Neben westlicher und chinesischer Forschung wird der Kurs auch Dokumentarfilme zu den Wanderarbeitern analysieren. Darüber hinaus diskutieren wir, ob Klassen- und Gendertheorien sowie anthropologische Ansätze geeignet sind, das Phänomen der "mingong" zu verstehen und in einen historischen und globalen Kontext einzuordnen.
