| Notes: | Bibliogr. S. 169 - 183 Angaben zum Inhalt: This book is about the life experiences of ethnic Chinese migrants in Germany. Considering the economic, social and psychological aspects of "home-making", Leung seeks to deepen our understanding of the ways in which individuals and communities leave their homes, establish new ones and maintain multiple homes in transnational space. Home and home-making are explored in relationship to the concepts "diaspora" and "transnationalism". Based on in-depth interviews and with overseas Chinese and fieldwork observations, this book provides an enthralling contemporary account of the Chinese communities in Germany |
