Dans le débat en cours sur la mondialisation, ce qui a manqué, c'est la parole des travailleurs – les millions de personnes qui migrent vers les usines de Chine et d'autres pays émergents pour fabriquer les biens vendus dans le monde entier. La journaliste Leslie T. Chang est allé rencontrer des femmes qui travaillent dans l'une des florissantes mégalopoles chinoises, et raconte leurs histoires.

Leslie T. Chang : La parole des ouvrières chinoises

The lives of Chinese factory workers are often misunderstood, reduced to symbols of exploitation or suffering. In reality, millions of young migrants leave rural villages for cities like Dongguan, seeking opportunity, skills, and personal growth. For these workers, their ambitions and choices matter more than the products they make, and few wish to return to the old ways back home. One young woman, after several job changes, saved enough for a car and apartment, showing a trajectory of agency and self-improvement.
