With China’s rapid advancements in urbanization and industrialization, there has been significant labor movement away from agriculture in the rural regions. Using four village case studies, Song examines how this restructuring process affects the rural population.
Much of her research is centered on their various perceptions and reactions towards the market reforms. How are their lives reshaped through the employment transition? Along with the changes of family life and the diversification of development models, how do an individual’s gender and background play a role in determining employment? These are the broad questions that Song addresses through detailed analysis of four different villages, in light of China’s move towards decentralization of its rural economy.

Gender and Employment in Rural China examines how China's rapid urbanization, industrialization, and transition away from an agriculture-centered rural economy have reshaped employment, family life, and gender relations. Drawing on in-depth case studies of four Chinese villages, Jing Song explores how local development patterns, migration, market reform, family expectations, gender, and individual background influence employment opportunities and choices.
