Abstract:With the development of female migrant workers' subjectivity in labor process, they increasingly found it easier to be proactive in their negotiation with their employers, thus contributing to the growth of respect for their interests and the improvement of their living conditions. Based on the case study of Factory SF in Fuzhou, this paper adopts Burawoy's labor process theory in an examination of female migrants workers' subjectivity in the production space, in order to explain the factors in and outside of the labor process that help contribute to the formation of the subjectivity. This study finds that the 'vulnerable economic and social status of the female migrant workers reinforce each other, which makes them tend to adopt a strong pragmatic approach to exert their subjectivity in the labor process. And that the female migrant workers' subjectivity is constrained by the limited space they have in the workshop and their living quarters.
