Contemporary Chinese Diasporas cover

This book focuses on International migration among the Chinese long before European colonists set foot on the Asian continent. Long before European colonists set foot on the Asian continent, the Chinese moved across sea and land, seasonally or permanently, to other parts of Asia and the rest of the world to pursue economic opportunities and alternative means of livelihood. This volume addresses the new Chinese diasporas around the world, offering a snapshot of the cosmopolitan and shifting nature of Chinese population dynamics from the perspectives of anthropologists, sociologists, and scholars of international studies.  




“A collection of essays from the International Symposium on the Formation and Development of New Chinese Diasporas, this is an important title in the emerging scholarship of Chinese diaspora and migration studies. … Summing Up: Highly recommended. All academic levels/libraries.” (D. A. Forbes, Choice, Vol. 55 (8), April, 2018)
