Abstract "The influx of Uyghur migrant workers from rural areas into mainland cities in China has steadily increased since the 1980s. These migrants face unique challenges, with differences in language, religious belief, customs, values and behavior, and their transition to urban environments is often accompanied by psychological barriers and economic burdens. This study aims to analyze the living conditions and challenges encountered by these 'floating' populations, and to understand the mechanisms that facilitate or hinder their integration"-- Provided by publisher.
