Transnational Ties, Local Lives: Translocal Dynamics of Chinese Diaspora and Community Re-organisation delves into the evolving civic life and organisational structures of Chinese diaspora communities. Drawing on rich, multi-method ethnographic research in Australia, this book unveils the dynamic ways ethnic Chinese communities self-organise, offering a new theoretical framework to dissect the dimensions, scope, and essence of their re-organisation efforts and the wider implications thereof.

This work enriches our comprehension of the local and global influence of Chinese immigrants and their associations in the contemporary era. It serves as a valuable reference for scholars and students interested in migration, diaspora studies, and the role of ethnic and migrant organisations in civic life and community building. Transnational Ties, Local Lives provides a critical examination of the intricate relationships between identity, belonging, and community in a globalised world.

This engaging book presents a bottom-up perspective on the personal dreams and realities of migrants who establish their lives and homes in new countries. It encapsulates the spirit of change and resilience, crafting a story that echoes the diverse experiences of diaspora communities across the globe.
