| Sommario/riassunto: | "This insightful Handbook explores the dynamics of historical and contemporary migration flows to China from across its bordering regions, Asia and other continents. It analyzes the social, economic, cultural, and legal developments that arise from migration to China. Leading experts discuss how China has become a key destination for international migration, outlining the resulting diversities within Chinese society. They examine the ways in which migration has been encouraged, tolerated, and contained by Chinese authorities, investigating how policies towards migrants reflect China's evolving position in the global migration order and the development trajectories it follows. The Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of legal and policy changes in the field, demonstrating the connections between immigration policy reforms and broader economic and societal developments. The Handbook on Migration to China is an essential resource for students, scholars, and researchers in Asian politics, policy and development, Chinese studies, migration, and population studies. Interdisciplinary in scope, it will also benefit practitioners and policymakers working in migration, regulation, governance, and public policy"-- |
