To summarize the article: 1. There have been many successful labour actions in the last 3 years, mostly for higher wages. However, the demands have not been for better living conditions. 2. Most factory workers are migrants, and as such, their social lives back home are separated from their economic lives in the coastal cities where they work. In addition, obvious political movements are strongly suppressed, so the workers present their strikes as solely economic. These prevent strong activist movements for workers' rights from developing. 3. Recently, companies have been moving factories towards the source of the migrant workers: the interior. The author thinks that from this merging of workers' social and economic livelihoods, the workers' rights movement will bloom and lead to a true leftist movement in China.
