An eye-opening account of the human cost behind China's economic miracle
In the shadow of China's rapid economic growth and global prominence, a vast underbelly of poverty and marginalization persists, hidden from the world's view. 'China's Forgotten People' is a poignant and thought-provoking book that shines a light on the untold stories of the poor and marginalized communities living amidst China's economic boom.
Written by renowned journalist and author Peter Hessler, 'China's Forgotten People' takes readers on a deeply personal journey into the lives of individuals living in the fringes of Chinese society. Hessler spent years traveling to remote villages, meeting and documenting the struggles and aspirations of the forgotten—the migrant workers, rural farmers, and urban homeless.

Through intimate portraits and vivid storytelling, Hessler paints a complex and often heartbreaking picture of the human cost of China's economic development. He exposes the deeply rooted inequalities, social injustices, and human rights abuses that have left millions behind.
Forgotten Communities and Hidden Suffering
'China's Forgotten People' delves into the plight of various marginalized groups, including:
- Migrant workers: Millions of rural workers have migrated to cities in search of work, leaving behind families and facing discrimination and exploitation in urban areas.
- Rural farmers: Once the backbone of China's economy, small-scale farmers are struggling to survive amidst land grabs, environmental degradation, and competition from industrial agriculture.
- Urban homeless: The number of homeless people in China's cities is rising, with many living in makeshift shelters and facing social stigma and lack of support.
- Ethnic minorities: Many indigenous communities in China face discrimination, poverty, and limited access to education and healthcare.
- People with disabilities: Individuals with disabilities in China are often excluded from education, employment, and social services.

A Call for Compassion and Action
'China's Forgotten People' is not merely a report on poverty and inequality; it is a powerful indictment of the policies and attitudes that have allowed these problems to persist. Hessler argues that the human cost of China's economic growth is unacceptable and calls for urgent action to address the suffering of the marginalized.
The book highlights the need for:
- Government policies that prioritize social justice and poverty reduction.
- Economic reforms that create opportunities for all, not just the privileged few.
- Increased investment in education, healthcare, and social services.
- Respect for human rights and protection for the vulnerable.
- Societal attitudes that embrace compassion, empathy, and inclusion.
