改革开放以来,中国的城市化进程明显加快,随着越来越多的农村富余劳动力开始向城市和乡镇企业转移,出现了第一代和新生代两代不同的农民工群体。两代农民工群体在自身特点、外出动机、消费观念、维权意识等方面都存在差异性,对其进行分析比较,能够更好地促进农民工群体的健康发展,具有鲜明的时代意义。 Since the reform and opening up, the process of urbanization in China has accelerated noticeably. As more and more rural surplus labor force has started to migrate to cities and township and village enterprises, two generations of migrant workers groups, the first generation and the second generation, have emerged. Two generations of migrant workers groups have their own characteristics, motivation to go out, consumer attitudes, awareness of rights protection and other differences, to analyze and compare them, to better promote the healthy development of migrant workers, has a distinct contemporary significance.
