The State between Migration and Dojourning: the China difference

LSE Space for Thought lecture series


At the end of the 19th century, the Qing court described all Chinese living overseas as sojourners. Under the Republic, overseas Chinese were enjoined to be patriotic. After 1949, migration policies changed several times. Why did three different Chinese states pay so much attention to this subject?

Wang Gungwu is university professor at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, National University of Singapore and chairman of the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies.
