Description
"Chinese Identities, Ethnicity and Cosmopolitanism explores the ever-changing personal and cultural identity of Chinese migrants and the diverse cosmopolitan communities they create. Within these communities migrants face a fight between departure and destination cultures. This book considers the consequences of this conflict of identity and the numerous possible outcomes from cultural assimilation to the emergence of mutually developed hybrid cultures." "Using extensive case study material, various models of newly-forged communities are examined. The book analyses the individual's place in society, as well as the conflict between personal ethnic identity, and migration, integration and cultural conversion. Chan highlights the point that communities are not homogeneous but composed of an array of motives, aims and degrees of receptivity."--Jacket.
