Title LEGAL EMPOWERMENT OF LABOUR: From Perspectives of Non-discrimination and Legal Inclusion
Summary This paper mainly deals with labour rights in terms of how the most disadvantaged workers, here particularly referring to migrant workers, can have their entitled human rights protected through legal empowerment in the context of China. To address this problem, this paper firstly goes through the literature on legal empowerment to clarify its significance. Then it portraits a picture of the rights situation of migrant workers in China, stressing that migrant workers need to be empowered to fight against discrimination. In the third chapter, experiences from the U.S. and the Philippines in respect of how to empower the disadvantaged are learned. Finally, the paper applies the lessons to the China context and proposes an integral framework of legal empowerment of labour in China.
