Over myriads of migration trajectories, settlement adaptations, and generation variations, diasporic Chinese have constantly reconfigured their subjectivities as a group, locally, regionally, and globally. Either as migrants transcending geographic demarcations and territories or ethnic groups with distinctive cultures and mentalities, members of the Chinese diaspora have aspirations and concerns that have evolved over time and space. This special issue re-examines and reconceptualizes boundaries and bonds of Chinese diaspora in various realms and aspects. It features six revised papers, from an international conference on “Boundaries and Bonds” held in October 2021, and an article that shares the same academic concern. They are riveting accounts of how multiple disciplines should be engaged in order to approach Chinese diaspora as subject matter and to reveal the diversity of situations where Chinese as migrants and ethnic groups are positioned and constructed for a myriad of reasons. Their case studies on Guangdong, Brazil, Singapore, Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Myanmar reveal the various processes and routes of resetting networks and boundaries that have brought about new elements of Chinese ethnicity. 历经各种各样的移民轨道途径、定居调试方式、代际变更差异，作为处在在地、区 域、全球维度的离散华人，经常重组他们的主体性。无论身为跨越地理区分与疆界 的移民，或者具有的特殊文化与意识的族群，离散华人的想望与关注，随着时间与 空间而产生变化。这特刊重新检阅离散华人，并且概念化他们在不同脉络与方面的 界线与连线。六篇文章来自于 2021 年 10 月举办的 “界线与连线” 的国际研讨会，另 外一篇与主题相关的文章也收录其中。这些研究，展示了多元学科的重要性，有助 于更好理解离散华人，揭示华人移民与华人族群由于各种原因，体现了繁复的处境 与位置。这些广东、巴西、新加坡、澳洲、印度尼西亚、马来西亚、缅甸的案例， 显露了网络与边界的不断调整，给华人族群性带来了新的元素。 Published version |
