Chinese Diaspora: Its Development in Global Perspective

Abstract: 

By Lok Siu and Khachig Tölölyan: This volume provides important insights into the Chinese diaspora through a mix of disciplinary approaches and a wide range of topics, historical periods, thematic foci, and geographical sites. In this way, the volume provides a set of entry points to illuminate the immense diversity that constitutes the Chinese diaspora. It is a valuable addition both to diaspora studies more generally and to our understanding of the ongoing and specific processes that these 50 million people are engaged in as they make and remake the world.
