Sammendrag
Viewing the rural-urban migration as a change of life world for each individual, this

study aims to investigate how the individual constructs the meaning of the self from

the new experiences in the migration process. The author examines through the self in

three different stages of the migration process. She shows respectively through

empirical studies how the self had been pre-shaped in the rural context in the

decision-making stage; how the migration can bring a cleavage to the individual’s

self-identity in the migrating stage, and how the continuity of the self can be achieved

again with a reconstructed self-identity in the individual’s later stage of living in cities.

With a critical point of view towards the researches in the same study field, the author

argues that in the study of the rural migrant workers, the agency of the rural migrant

workers should not be ignored; and to fully understand the rural-urban migration in

the Chinese context, researchers, especially western researchers, should give a special

attention to the cultural patterns.
