Abstract

The emergence of the surplus agricultural labor force employed in the secondary and tertiary industries in rural areas, the registered agricultural population engaged in business and the agricultural labor force has contributed to the continuous extension of the meaning of the term “migrant workers”. The evolvement of the meaning of “migrant workers” is the change of language promoted by the development of migrant workers through the economic principle and metonymy mechanism.
