Re: China's migrant refuseniks

This is a very fascinating article, displaying the contradictions in
Chinese development on a far deeper level than the loud discussion that
followed the mention of the article by Marty & Paul.

At first it did not make sense at all.  How could China have great
unemployment & a shortage of workers?  Then we see that the public
sector has fallen down on the job of educating the workforce. And to
give a fair deal to farmers upsets the applecart.

Some time ago, Johnathan posted an article about the 10 contradictions
in Chinese development.  I think that it might be time to look at the
sort of contradictions that could have been avoided under socialism and
how they might play out under capitalism.
