Summary

"Centering on oral histories in Fujian, Shuxuan Zhou situates first-hand accounts of labor and resistance in forestry and wood processing within the larger context of post-revolutionary socialist reforms through China's post-1990s rapid economic development. In considering how sawmill and forest farm workers creatively reconfigured state projects and challenged authority, this book opens a conversation among gender studies, labor studies, and environmental studies"-- Provided by publisher.
