SOC161 Michigan State Hukou System & Well Being of Migrant Workers Discussion ‘For this essay, my main question is ‘Can the reformation of the Hukou System Improve The Welfare of Migrant Workers? I want to look into how the Hukou system(in China) affects the livelihood of migrant workers; most of whom seek jobs in urban areas with rural Hukou. How does this system affect their access to good housing, insurance, wages and work place safety? I wish to look into the restrictions that come with the system, the resulting divide of local workers VS migrant workers. What role do city authorities play in this and how do they seek to ensure the welfare of migrant workers i.e are they allowed access to labor unions etc.What is the role of NGOs in reforming the labor system and ensuring the welfare of migrant workers? What are city authorities doing to loosen the requirements of the Hukou? Thus can the reformation of the system improve the well being of migrant workers?You need to find at least 2 journal articles (or books, or book chapters) that can provide a foundation for your discussion.

How is your final essay going to be evaluated?
1. Presentation of your case and arguments
For the topic of your choice, you should provide a general introduction on the issue, and then raise a
question. The rest of the essay should be organized in a way to address that question. In the
introduction, you introduce the context and your question, and in the conclusion, you summarize your
argument.
2. Writing itself
Proof-read your essay several times before submission. The paragraphs should flow in a logical manner.
Every paragraph should have a topic. Avoid long paragraphs that go over more than a page.
3. Discuss Amartya Sen’s book “Development as Freedom.”
I’ve posted the introduction and first chapter of the book on D2L (under “Reading”). The book discusses
different kinds of freedom and “unfreedom,” and argues that development should not be understood
merely in economic terms, but should be about expanding freedom and enhancing “human capability.”
Either in the introduction or the conclusion, discuss how this perspective on “development as freedom”
can help better understand your case study (i.e., your topic).
4. Citing and discussing at least two academic sources
You need to find at least 2 journal articles (or books, or book chapters) that can provide a foundation for
your discussion. MSU library is a good place to do a bibliographic search.
