    1 WORKER RIGHTS Introduction During the Commission’s 2016 reporting year, Chinese law con- tinued to restrict workers’ rights to freely establish and join inde- pendent trade unions. Workers’ right to collective bargaining re- mained limited, and Chinese law did not protect workers’ right to strike. In the face of slowing economic growth, Chinese firms and government officials warned of impending layoffs in troubled sec- tors. Wages continued to rise in China, but workers faced slower wage growth. Chinese government officials and international ob- servers reported a significant increase in worker actions such as strikes and protests, and the majority of these actions involved dis- putes over wage arrears. The situation of labor rights advocates and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) has worsened in re- cent years, particularly in Guangdong province, where authorities detained over a dozen labor rights advocates and NGO staff, arrest- ing four. Labor abuses related to dispatch and intern labor, as well as workers above the retirement age, continued. According to gov- ernment data, workplace accidents and deaths continued to decline, while reported cases of occupational illness increased. International observers continued to express concern regarding workplace safety in China.

Travaillant d’arrache-pied depuis 2013 à se débarrasser L principalement des alliés de Jiang Zemin, l’alliance Xi-Wang a enfin réussi à purger le Parti-État afin de positionner ses alliés. Ce faisant, la transition qui aura vraiment lieu cet automne n’est pas la transition Hu Jintao- Xi Jinping, celle-ci date déjà de 2012. La transition de 2017 est celle de la Chine des années 1990 à la Chine des années 2010, soitde la Chine de Jiang Zemin à celle de Xi Jinping. Ce sera également le début de l’ère des enfants de la révolution culturelle, des « zhiqing » [知青] (jeunesses envoyées en campagne), qui formeront une majorité au sein du Politburo et qui remanieront la Chine à leur manière. Avec les départs annoncés, Xi pourra enfin former son « bandi » [班底] – garde rapprochée – au sein du Politburo et effectivement mettre en place un agenda de politiques et non pas simplement des mesures visant à faire le ménage au cœur du Parti-État. Des 24 individus restants, entre 12 et 16 devront partir; 121 sièges (si l’on compte le siège rendu vacant de Sun Zhengcai) et 16 si Xi Jinping décide d’appliquer plus « sévèrement » la limite d’âge maintenant à 68 ans.

I would like to thank Professor Michael Friedrich (University of Hamburg) for his insightful comments and criticism on an earlier draft. 1 If not further specified ‘manuscript’ refers to ‘multi-slip manuscripts’.

  • Consulat General De France a Wuhan Deleguee Du Service Economique Regional En Chine
    CONSULAT GENERAL DE FRANCE A WUHAN DELEGUEE DU SERVICE ECONOMIQUE REGIONAL EN CHINE Qin Huang Wuhan, le 14 mai 2013 NOTE Objet : Présentation générale sur la ville de Wuhan Située au cœur de la Chine, Wuhan, capitale de la province du Hubei, est généralement assez méconnue en dépit de ses 10 millions d’habitants (30 millions avec 8 villes satellites). Et pourtant, cette métropole, surnommée « la ville du Fleuve Bleu », a toujours occupée une place stratégique dans l’histoire chinoise traditionnelle et moderne. Aujourd’hui, Wuhan constitue un pôle majeur et incontournable en Chine dans les domaines de l’industrie (productions d’acier et d’automobiles dans les premières du pays), des hautes technologies (plusieurs de ses parcs industriels sont réputés internationalement), de l’éducation et de la recherche scientifique (3ème centre universitaire de Chine, son nombre d’étudiants atteignant 1,2 millions). Véritable hub des transports à moins de 1000 km de Pékin, Shanghai, Canton, Chongqing et Hong Kong, principales villes d’importance, cette position centrale lui offre un avantage indéniable dans le développement du territoire intérieur chinois. Ainsi, Wuhan connaît, particulièrement depuis 2004, une croissance économique sans précédent, affichant un taux maximal de 15,6% en 2007, dépassant chaque année de plusieurs points la croissance moyenne nationale. Quand cette dernière est de 7,8% en 2012, Wuhan enregistre quant à elle un taux de croissance de 11,4%. Selon ses dirigeants locaux, la ville serait désormais dans une période qualifiée d’ « âge d’or » et ce pour encore 10 ans. A cette nouvelle et très forte dynamique économique est associée une modernisation fulgurante dans tous les domaines couplée à des visions de grandeur, d’énergie créative et de projets les plus innovants.
