Chinese migration in Germany: making home in transnational space

"This book is about the life experiences of ethnic Chinese migrants in Germany. Considering the economic, social and psychological aspects of "homemaking", Maggi Wai Han 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 with overseas Chinese and fieldwork observations, this book provides a contemporary account of the Chinese communities in Germany."--Jacket.
