Perpetual Foreigners: Chinese Americans and the U.S. Opening to China / Minami, Kazushi   Journal Article
Minami, Kazushi Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract In the fall of 1980, sinologist Wei Peh T’i revisited her hometowns in China, Nanjing and Chongqing, for the first time since she left for New York in 1947, at age sixteen. Wei was part of a luxury cruise for “foreigners,” but with unfading knowledge of local dialects, she managed to visit the people on the name list that her parents had prepared for her homecoming. A curious gaze of the “natives” trailed Wei along the way, however, and an old Chinese poem came to her mind:

Places of socialization and (sub)ethnic identities among Asian : evidence from the 2007 Chinese American Homeland Politics Survey / Lien, Pei-te   Journal Article
Lien, Pei-te Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2008.
Summary/Abstract This research provides an empirical assessment of the relationship between places of socialization and ethnic self-identity preferences among Asian immigrants in the US from separate parts of a politically divided homeland. Does place of socialization influence the (sub)ethnic self-identity of Chinese Americans raised in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong? How do socialization context and transnational political concerns, among other factors, help structure the relationship? Benefiting from recent advancements in targeted ethnic sampling and telephone survey methodology, this paper examines results of the 2007 Chinese American Homeland Politics Survey to study the contour and sources of ethnic identity preferences among Chinese in the US from separate homeland origins. The usefulness of a theoretical framework that contrasts primordial ties with transnational political ties in understanding the structuring of identity preferences at the subethnic level is tested.

Pre-emigration socialization, transnational ties, and political: a comparison among immigrants from China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong / Lien, Pei-te   Journal Article
Lien, Pei-te Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract Extant research on immigrant incorporation pays little attention to variations among immigrants from the same ethnic origin. A main purpose of this study is to address this research void by exploring how differences in the pre-emigration socialization context for immigrants from a politically divided homeland may affect their participation in mainstream-oriented and homeland-regarded poli-tics. I posit that experiences Asian immigrants have in different political systems before crossing the Pacific may result in different relationships they maintain with their homeland as well as different attitudes toward homeland government and policies they develop after the crossing; and this, in turn, may affect how much they participate in politics on both sides of the Pacific. However, through the process of resocialization, I also suggest immigrants' political behavior may be influenced by their degree of exposure to the host society as well as by their connectedness with its institutions. Using data from the 2007 Chinese American Homeland Politics survey, I focus on the experiences of US immigrants of Chinese descent from China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong to test these hypotheses.
