Migration, Indigenization And Interaction: Chinese Overseas And Globalization [PDF ebook] 
Chinese Overseas and Globalization

The twelve chapters included in this book address various issues related to Chinese migration, indigenization and exchange with special reference to the era of globalization. As the waves of Chinese migration started in the last century, the emphasis, not surprisingly, is placed on the âmigrant statesâ rather than âindigenous statesâ. Nevertheless, many chapters are also concerned with issues of âsettling downâ and âbecoming part of the local scenesâ. However, the settling/integrating process has been interrupted by a globalizing world, new Chinese migration and the rise of China at the end of 20th century.
