They have made great contributions to urban prosperity, rural development and their country's modernization. At present, however, farmer workers face numerous difficulties and problems in income, work safety, social security, vocational training, the schooling of their children and living conditions. To safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of farmer workers, the State Council in March 2006 issued Ideas of the State Council on Solving Farmer Workers-related Problems. In the document, the State Council promises to strengthen and improve leadership over work regarding farmer workers and prioritize the solving of farmer workers-related problems.展开更多

On the basis of fully explaining peasant workers’ transformation to urban residents, a method for measuring its process has been advanced and then confirmed with the data of March in 2005 from surveys to peasant workers in Wuhan. Finally, the suggestions of acceler-ating peasant workers’ transformation to urban residents to pro-mote the construction of a harmonious society have been drawn from the analysis.展开更多

It is the main body ofmodern industrial workers in our country. The urbanization of migrant workers has become a major problem in the transformation of China' ssocial and economic structure, the core of the problem of the "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" and the focus of the community. Theacademic circles have done a lot of research on this issue. The equalization of basic public services is the right of every member of societyto share the fruits of social development. This right is the only way to realize the equalization of general public services. From the dynamicevolution, the equalization of basic public services is an indispensable process in the realization of fairness and the justice in society as a whole.Therefore, this paper proposes the novel idea on the issue that will later promote the development of the related theories and applications.展开更多
