• Description

  People on the Move: New Perspectives on Overseas Chinese Studies The Overseas Chinese Research Team, established in 2008, focuses on research related to overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese education. Core members include scholars from National Taiwan Normal University, Taipei City University, and National Quemoy University. Their research covers a wide range of disciplines, including political economy, history, geography, literature, cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, education, and architecture. While early overseas Chinese were often driven by political or economic factors, recent migration motivations have diversified, encompassing educational, cultural, and religious factors. These migrations are often voluntary and proactive, significantly different from the conditions and circumstances of 19th-century overseas migration. Furthermore, migration routes are no longer confined to single, one-way routes, but have evolved into multi-directional, multi-target, and even round-trip mobility. With the accelerating spread of contemporary globalization, the political, economic, social, and cultural contexts have diverged from those of the 20th century and earlier. Consequently, interpreting the roles of overseas Chinese communities, families, and individuals in various global contexts today requires situating them within a new temporal and spatial context.
