Danwei Model Workers 2010

2010 Danwei Model Worker badge

In lieu of a proper blogroll, Danwei has chosen to award Model Worker citations more or less annually to blogs we frequently read and enjoy.

The years since our first installment in 2005 have seen an explosion in the number of fascinating China-related blogs, written both English and Chinese. Our annual lists have gotten increasingly unwieldy to prepare, and we inevitably end up overlooking a number of our favorite blogs.

For 2010, we have decided to make regular recommendations of interesting reading.

Previous Model Worker honorees:

• 2008 (Olympic edition): English, Chinese, supplement
• 2007: English, Chinese, supplement
• 2006: Chinese blogs — a list of favorites
• 2005: Inaugural edition (English)

Below is a list of Model Worker honorees for 2010, updated regularly throughout the year.

The 2010 Danwei Model Worker badge is adapted from an old model worker pin issued in 1952 by the Shijingshan Power Station (石景山发电厂) on the outskirts of urban Beijing. The image was taken from a listing on the China Collectors Online website.
