"Migrant workers" as the new term emerging in the last century, is a product of economic development. After "working", "wage earners", "wage-women" appearing in the last century 80's, then the "workers" as a only distinction between urban and rural wage workers appeared in our lives.Farmers who go into the city become the object of migrant labors novels which describe the farmers' lives, appearance of life, and the mental characteristics . This kind of novels displayed famers' embarrassed status, and the pain of subsistence which caused by the binary system of segregation, as well as the writers' spirit of realism, the literature of social criticism, reflection function, and the writer's social responsibility.In order to grasping migrant workers since the new century novels as a whole, this thesis make up of five parts: the introduction of this article, the three parts of the body as well as the conclusion to be discussed.Introduction is mainly for sorting and summarizing domestic research papers which referred to migrant workers novels, and providing the research based on. The first chapter is Main styles on migrant worker novels in new era. It seeks to get a macro-level understanding of this kind of novels, and sort out their theme styles. The main theme divided into three categories: suffering, revenge, rethink. The theme of suffering show in three main areas: economy, the material life of misery; trampled human dignity brought about the suffering on the spirit; lives are not guaranteed which caused the survival suffering. Revenge theme is based mainly on the motives of revenge and start the actual behavior of these acts of revenge into the relationship between the presentation which is divided into three categories: the emergence of vengeance, the seeds of revenge; the victim will be put on the idea of revenge action when vengeance is deepening, at the time the violent revenge means to seek the social justice, justice and it is implicit politically motive; Lastly, retaliation has become a criminal act for money. Rethinking theme shows that in the modern highly developed urban civilization and the material life the people how to alienation, it also shows the sick spiritual world. In the second chapter, paper focuses on categories of the typical images. The images will be classified as "innocent people", "untouchables" and "North-women" (the typical image of women migrant workers). It provides for a typical representative image analysis of migrant workers the novel described, and described the culture behind this three types of people. Innocent groups represent the majority migrant workers, they suffered, obedience, behaved the lives of the poor live. In addition to the above characteristics of the innocent people, untouchables are more inferior in status, and even as a tool. In analyzing the image of a female migrant workers, author mainly analyzed the prostitutes image. In the masculist society, they are the weakest of the weak people, not only to accept the control of authority, violation of their clients, but also to accept the condemnation of public opinion. Chapterâ…¢of the thesis describe the novel scenario models and the study authors point of view, intended to reveal deep-rooted problems behind the creation. Plot of the novel mode of classification, I found that there are two recurring plot structure - the suffering and the revenge. The reason, first of all, is a writer who can not reflect the true class to rely on imagination to build a false image of the migrant workers. Secondly, the writers in order to satisfy psychological adventure readers certain facts and deliberately exaggerated. Finally, the author describes the writers through the analysis of the three observation approach - the elite perspective, the civilian population and civil society perspective of the moral perspective, reveals the writer description position, and the outlook of value in their depiction. Conclusion analysis the problems still existed in migrant workers novels in the new era.
