Education, literature, and media. 330 $aWith around 40 million people worldwide, the ethnic Chinese and the Chinese in diaspora form the largest diaspora in the world. The economic reform of China which began in the late 1970s marked a huge phase of migration from China, and the new migrants, many of whom were well educated, have had a major impact on the local societies and on China. This is the first interdisciplinary Handbook to examine the Chinese diaspora, and provides a comprehensive analysis of the processes and effects of Chinese migration under the headings of: Population and distribution; Mainland China and Taiwan?s policies on the Chinese overseas; Migration: past and present; Economic and political involvement; Localization, transnational networks and identity; Education, literature and media. The Routledge Handbook of the Chinese Diaspora brings together a significant number of specialists from a number of diverse disciplines and covers the major areas of the study of Chinese overseas. This Handbook is therefore an important and valuable reference work for students, scholars and policy makers worldwide who wish to understand the global phenomena of Chinese migration, transnational connections and their cultural and identity transformation. 410 0$aRoutledge handbooks. 606 $aChinese diaspora 606 $aChinese$zForeign countries$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChinese diaspora. 615 0$aChinese$xHistory. 676 $a305.8/951 701 $aTan$b Chee-Beng$0644841 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463026103321 996 $aRoutledge handbook of the Chinese diaspora$92139311 997 $aUNINA
