China Perspectives, n°4/2010, sur revues.org

Introduction (Sylvie Démurger) : Despite a rate of urbanisation reaching 48 percent in 2010, China's level of urbanisation lags relative to countries at a comparable level of development. During the country's economic transformation, urbanisation has been highly regulated through the dual urban-rural resident system of the hukou, a distinctive feature of China that imposes strong institutional barriers to migration. Unlike many developing countries that experienced a rapid urbanisation process, China avoided many problems associated with the rapid development of mega-cities, including slums, urban poverty, criminality, and social unrest. The other side of the coin, however, is that such regulation imposed a high cost on rural migrants, who contributed to urbanisation while remaining marginalised in cities.

The bulk of China's urbanisation process, which has been accelerating since 2000, consists of a massive rural labour exodus. The latest official figures released in March 2010 by the National Bureau of Statistics estimate the total number of rural migrant workers at 229.8 million as of the end of 2009. Out of this total figure, 145.3 million (i.e., 63 percent) are working outside their hometowns (for a period over six months), and the remaining 84.5 million are working in their hometowns.
