The modernization of China will have a far reaching influence on the rest of the World. But the creation of a skilled Chinese labor force, on which modernization depends, remains a formidable task. This dissertation is a study of the character and structure of education in Chinese industry and its role in upgrading the skill levels of labor. Drawing on published research, extensive first hand observations and field work interviews, the study examines the conditions under which Chinese industrial workers receive literacy, technical and managerial education and estimates the significance of industrial education in the economic and social development of China. Chapter I introduces the methods and procedures of the study. In Chapter II, the relationship between industrial development and industrial education since 1949 is examined through the literature. In Chapter III, through interviews and case histories, the administrative structure of workers' education is presented, highlighting the problems and successes of the interplay between central control and local flexibility which presently typifies education in Chinese industry. Chapter IV presents the role of teachers and teaching methods at the local level. Chapter V traces how workers become students; through interviews they share their backgrounds, experiences and views on workers' education. This study shows that after 1977, with the growing stability of China, the purpose of education in industry has evolved from its earlier short-term, low priority or at times highly politicized goals to an almost exclusive expansion of the technical and managerial skills of workers. Supported by the Chinese leadership, this change in workers' education has been enthusiastically participated in by the working people. This study also documents that illiteracy, semi-literacy, and low technical skills at the local level continue to retard the national development of Chinese industry. Increased technical training for the industrial labor force within enterprise schools more than anything else appears to be what the Chinese now believe is needed to improve quality and expand industrial production. Therefore, education in Chinese industry has been given a greater responsibility for the advancement of Chinese society. This importance, it seems clear, will increase as Chinese industry develops, conditions improve, and greater technical expertise at all levels is required.
