Industrial Transformation and Proletarianization in Taivvan

The rapid industrialization that has occurred in Taiwan over the past three decades has been accompanied by an extraordinary scale and pace of proletarianization. This paper analyzes the pattern of Taiwan's proletarianization and examines the demographic and social characteristics of the newly emerged working class in Taiwan. Distinctive features of Taiwan's industrialization are its geographically dispersed pattern of development and the predominance of small-scale enterprises. This has helped the first generation of Taiwan's industrial workers adapt smoothly to industrial work but also has retarded the development of strong worker identity and the working-class movement
