Abstract

Trade unionism and co-determination emerged during the conflict between capitalists and labour. Since the Chinese Constitution states that China is ‘led by the working class’ and since the culture of the Chinese aerospace industry is family-oriented, we approach the function of the All China Federation of Trade Union and the Staff and Workers Representative Congress within its local context. Though the twin institutions have encountered ebb and flow during China’s political changes, their perceived weakness from a Western perspective has no significance for aerospace conglomerates’ re-combinative innovation. Chinese economic reform has, however, enabled aerospace conglomerates AVIC, CASC, CASIC and COMAC to gradually involve the new generation of employees, which has served to underpin their intrinsic motivation that could further China’s aerospace ambition.
