2. Can China be Beautiful?
A giant labor force is pouring into cities from rural areas, resulting in the mass immigration and urbanization of the Chinese population. This has created an even wider gap between urban and rural residents, between different geographical regions, and between people from different socio-economic backgrounds. This episode
will discuss why every citizen must have
equivalent social service benefits and how
a just platform can enable immigrants to
become local residents, the inequality of ‘leftbehind’
children’s education, the dilemmas
of urban management using the group
of enforcers known as chengguan, and
problems caused by an aging society. How
can the dream of a harmonious China be
realized?
