Adopting a transnational frame, the author narrates Chinese history through a reconceptualization of diaspora to show how mass migration helped establish China as a nation-state within a global system. 650 0 $a Chinese diaspora. 651 0 $a China $x History $x History $y 19th century. 651 0 $a China $x History $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a China $x Political aspects. $x Political aspects. 651 0 $a China $x Economic aspects. $x Economic aspects. 650 7 $a Chinese diaspora. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01746779 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908690 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration $x Economic aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908694 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908710 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Chan, Shelly. $t Diaspora's homeland. $d Durham : Duke University Press, 2018 $z 9780822372035 $w (DLC) 2018000173 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230907011947.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211025930.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7C7FB22A840911E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
