Description
Summary:	'Beyond Market Meritocracy' investigates how employers evaluate and treat male and female employees with varied family care responsibilities in three different labour regimes of Chinese societies - the neo-liberal Hong Kong market under a productivist welfare system, the market-driven private sector of mainland China struggling with the post-COVID-19 economic decline, and the state-supervised public sector of mainland China with socialist legacies. Through extensive and empirical data, it uniquely enriches the existing literature by examining the rationales of employers in the comparisons of different types of family caregivers and non-caregivers and of different labour regimes in China.
