Abstract:
Cette thèse est consacrée à l’évolution de la place des femmes artistes d’origine miao, mongole et ouïgoure dans le champ artistique chinois 1950-2010. Son axe central consiste à montrer comment les mutations sociales ont modifié la place des femmes, et, plus précisément, comment leur place a été redéfinie dans un discours identitaire. Si dans les années 1950-1980, les œuvres portant sur l’idéologie collectiviste et la représentation de « la femme d’acier » occupaient une place primordiale, dans les années 1981-2000, les femmes artistes décrivent la situation réelle des femmes et mettent l’accent sur la question de l’identité des femmes modernes et sur des relations entre les femmes et les hommes. Elles cherchent à maîtriser des formes d’expression artistique ethnique plus variées et plus légitimes. Depuis 2001, afin de préserver les cultures ethniques face à la mondialisation, les femmes artistes essaient d’interpréter la profondeur de la culture ethnique dans leurs œuvres. C’est vers les traditions, telles que la mémoire historique, les mythologies, les chansons et les danses, que se tournent les artistes femmes issues des ethnies minoritaires à la recherche de racines culturelles. Cette recherche s’appuie à la fois sur l’analyse de la situation socio-culturelle des femmes artistes issues des ethnies minoritaires, l’analyse de la construction de l’identité féminine et l’analyse des particularités de l’expression des femmes artistes eu égard à leur appartenance ethnique
This thesis is devoted to studying the evolution of the place of female artists with Miao, Mongolian and Uygur origins in the Chinese artistic field 1950-2010. The central theme is to demonstrate how social changes have changed the place of women, and more specifically, how the place of women has been redefined in an identity discourse. If in the years 1960-1980, the art works dealing with the collectivist ideology and the representation of the ‘iron woman’ occupied a primordial place, in the years 1981-2000, the female artists describe the real situation of the women and put the focus on the question of the identity of modern women and the relations between women and men. They seek to master the different forms of ethnic artistic expression. Since 2001, in order to preserve ethnic cultures facing the globalization, the female artists are trying to interpret the depth of ethnic culture in their art works. It is towards traditions, such as historical memory, mythologies, songs and dances, that the female artists with ethnic minority origins are looking for their cultural roots. This research is based at the same time on the analysis of the socio-cultural situation of female artists with minority origins, the analysis of the construction of the feminine identity and the analysis of the particularities of the expression of female artists because of their ethnicity

Abstract:
Mongols in Northern China fear the end of a distinct cultural identity. Until the late 19th century, cultural differences between Mongols and Han could be seen through differences in each group's traditional way of life. Mongols were nomadic pastoralists. Han were sedentary farmers. Recent economic development, rapid urbanization, and assimilation policies have threatened Mongolian cultural identity. In response to this cultural identity anxiety, Mongols in Inner Mongolia have looked for ways to express their distinct cultural identity. This dissertation analyzes three case studies derived from material cultural productions that represent Mongolian cultural identity. These include pastoralism, the use of Genghis Khan, and the Mongolian language. The analyses of different material cultural artifacts and the application of cultural and political theory come together in this dissertation to demonstrate how Mongolian cultural identity is reimagined through representation. In this dissertation, I also demonstrate how these reimagined identities construct and maintain ethnic boundaries which prevent the total absorption of a distinct Mongolian identity.

Abstract:
During the last ten years, the number of Hong Kong Chinese migrating to the U.S. has increased. These new immigrants, with knowledge and life experiences shaped by the urban metropolis of Hong Kong, have begun to influence different aspects of Chinese communities in U.S. cities. A study of this group of Hong Kong Chinese provides a better understanding of how they have adapted to their new environment and how they have come to recognize themselves as Hong Kong Chinese Americans. In reviewing the available literature, very few studies have dealt with the identity changes of this group of people. Hence, the focus of this research was to discuss, specifically, 1) the components that constituted Hong Kong Chinese American identity and how they have changed; and 2) to illustrate the application of practice theory and the concept of habitus to the explanation of the formation of a sense of commonality among Hong Kong Chinese Americans. Twenty-eight Hong Kong Chinese who came to the U.S. in the last twenty-five years were selected and agreed to participate in a formal interview. According to the data collected from the informants and observations made on different occasions where Chinese were present, it became obvious that Hong Kong Cantonese language is the most unique component constituting a Hong Kong Chinese identity. Although nine other cultural traits discussed were not unique markers of this identity, these traits reflected changes among Hong Kong Chinese immigrants. Some of the traits endured the drastic changes of the socioeconomic and political situation in the U.S. and surfaced as major traits for them, while some other components lost their significance after the Hong Kong Chinese moved to the U.S. Practice theory and the concept of habitus helps to illustrate the identity labeled by the Hong Kong Chinese immigrants as "Hong Kong Chinese" as rooted in a sense of commonality among themselves. Such a sense is developed from the shared experience they had in Hong Kong and in the U.S.

Abstract:
The core of the thesis is, taking Chinese and Taiwanese identities in the contemporary Taiwanese society as cases, to discover how people perceive, formulate, and interact with identities. The research implements the grounded theory and in-depth interview research method, conducting 108 interviews in different regions of Taiwan from 2010 to 2013. The main argument is that identity in and of itself is merely a generic label, which does not cause emotions or behaviours - people know they are ascribed to certain categories, but they lack of motivations to take actions for the categorical groups. Only those identities articulated with 'emotion- or value-oriented discourses' can gain the capacity of provoking people's feelings and mobilising people to act. My research identifies and gives explicit discussions on two types of emotion-oriented discourses - imagined nostalgia and ethical narrative (which is also a value-oriented discourse), and three kinds of value-oriented discourses. They are: (1) Ethical narrative sets moral values for its audience; (2) cultural hierarchy defines socio-cultural values in society; and (3) political ideology signifies core political values of its audience. By treating identity as emotion- or value- oriented discourse, the thesis challenges traditional stereotypes of Taiwanese and Chinese identities in the society - such as identifying as Taiwanese means desiring independence, or all waishengren group would claim Chinese identity - and offers adequate theories to explain why it is not the case. The thesis emphasises that there is no determinant identity in the society, and it is possible for people to have a certain degree of free will choosing to accept or to reject the operation of an identity. The thesis takes critical views on identity politics, deeming it as a risky, double-edged sword in the contemporary politics, which should be carefully examined and substituted with another ideology capable to achieve political emancipation.

Abstract:
There have been concerns about low educational achievement of ethnic minority students in China. Previous studies have explored this area, especially in regard to the relationship between economic backwardness and achievement. However, a new field of study examines ethnic identity being considered as a cause of low achievement. This study is to use meta-analysis to determine the aggregate results of current research on the effects of self-identity on ethnic minority students and their achievement in China. The literature has been collected through searching library holdings, and online electronic resource search. Different levels of identity construction are discussed. This thesis concludes that there is a significant relationship between ethnic identity and student achievement. The findings show that the issue of identity is especially significant to ethnic groups. However, current focus is still on monetary inputs of education and its relationship with achievement. Some recommendations are provided for future research.

Full text
Abstract:
Critical urban studies has shifted in recent years toward a focus on inequality and identity-based tension in developing countries. These theories have evolved alongside pressure for inclusive urban governance that recognizes a right to difference for minorities in cities. In the rapidly urbanizing People's Republic of China, these complex issues threaten the inclusiveness of future development. Ürümqi, the capital city of Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR), has been the site of social unrest between the Han Chinese majority and the Uyghur minority for more than a century. Economic growth and urbanization have resulted in increasing inequality and tensions between Han and Uyghur people that periodically erupt in violence, as did in Ürümqi in July of 2009. These tensions are complicated by the socio-economic marginalization of minorities, and the exclusion of the overall population from urban governance processes. Following the July 2009 riots, the Xinjiang government expressed willingness for more inclusive urban development; however the local government lacks the necessary tools to facilitate participation, and as such resident perceptions go unheard. This study adapts critical urban theory and Chinese political thought for the non-democratic context of Ürümqi, China. The perceptions of local residents are evaluated using a questionnaire and focus groups, through which it is shown that resident perceptions and use of urban space are heavily affected by ethnic identity. This, coupled with the banning of Uyghur cultural practices and exclusion of residents from public affairs, exacerbates urban inequalities and identity-based tension. It is important that critical urban studies take residents' inability to participate in urban governance processes (particularly in non-democratic contexts) into account when studying the link between identity and urban space.

Full text
Abstract:
The past two decades have seen an ethno-religious revival in China, one which is spurred by the development of ethnic tourism with the introduction of the Chinese-state-market economy. The success of recreating, branding, and selling the Yi torch festival, as among the Liangshan Yi people, draws public attention. While some intellectuals are in favor of ethnic elites' effort in promoting cultural difference and authenticity in a festive context, others dispute the changing meanings that are brought about by this "invented tradition". My thesis is intended to bridge the disputants' concern of ritual knowledge and ritual reproduction with a lack of discussion of a stereotypically "primordial" form of the torch festival, dutzie, or "the sacrifice to the fire". I examine how cultural difference is reified and projected upon Morganian-Marxist scales of human societal development through the state-initiated projects of ethnic identification and "minority work" in the early years of nation-state building, and how subsequent radicalized state policies generate forced assimilation and give rise to the Yi's own appropriation of a state-designated category of ethnicity. By exploring both the retraditionalization of the Yi torch festival and the rural Yi's long-held practice of dutzie in the reform era, I investigate ritual changes and cultural continuity among the Liangshan Yi, and therefore highlight Yi identity formation in historical and social processes of producing ethnic dimension in China.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper explored the process of identity formation among the Hui national minority, particularly focusing on Hui students who live and study within the majority group. Given that Hui's tradition derived from its mixed blood is often misinterpreted by others in interactions with outgroup members, it is necessary to explore Hui students' opinions of their ethnicity in public school, the way that they construct their ethnic identity, and how identity varies among Hui students and thus affects their academic performance. Results showed that in the group of Hui students who reported their GPA, ethnic identity and self-esteem negatively predicted GPA. Self-esteem failed to act as a moderator in the prediction of GPA, but it did mediate the prediction of their aspiration for higher education. Differences between ethnic identity only existed between Hui students in central and northwest of China. Additional analysis and information from interviews showed that Hui students do have experiences in which they are misinterpreted by other groups, and Hui ethnicity does affect their life.

Abstract:
This thesis will analyse the identity politics of the Chinese party-state’s nation-building project in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. It will examine how the party-state intends to overcome the barrier of ethnic boundaries in the production of a shared sense of multi-ethnic, national belonging. Uyghurs and Han can be thought of as belonging to different civilisations (Chinese and Turkic-Islamic) but in modern times they are often thought of as divided by ethnic boundaries. The party-state’s idea of the Chinese nation (Zhonghua Minzu) is a nation-building project to eliminate these boundaries so as to produce a multi-ethnic nation. Fieldwork was conducted after the riots of July 2009 engulfed the region. Ethnically targeted violence against both Han and Uyghurs destabilised the city of Ürümchi and challenged the party-state’s vision of China as a unified and harmonious nation. The official Chinese explanation was that this was an internationally funded and synchronised terrorist attack but Uyghur rights groups have blamed tensions on government policy repressing Uyghur culture and stoking Han nationalism. The theoretical framework employed draws from the concepts of production and performativity in Post-Structuralist and Critical International Relations (IR) theory, particularly the work of Cynthia Weber (1998) and David Campbell (1998). The critical approach adopted here takes security as a process of performative enactment of identity, which produces the units we take for granted as worthy of security. The analysis will examine official performances of what it means to be Chinese and Uyghur. It will then ask how these performances are received and (re)performed by members of the postulated nation. The party-state seeks to include Uyghurs as Chinese but it also excludes and securitises Uyghur Turkic and Islamic identities as ‘outside’ threats to the unity of the nation. The research is a result of one year of fieldwork (September 2009-August 2010) in Ürümchi, the capital city of Xinjiang. This was the first ethnographic study of responses to the violence of July 2009. Furthermore, the incorporation of Han perspectives has been very limited thus far in the literature on Xinjiang. The analysis uses a top-down approach, which employs discourse analysis of official texts to understand what type of national identity the party-state seeks to produce. However, these methods are coupled with a bottom-up analysis using ethnographic methods, particularly detailed, semi-structured interviews, to explore how these official discourses are received. The perspectives of Han and Uyghurs in Xinjiang can inform us how nation-building will unfold and what type of social dynamics it will engender. Analysing perspectives on the nation from below can help us understand the type of nation we expect to be produced in China rather than the type of nation the party-state narrates. The findings of this research demonstrate that both Uyghurs and Han are turning official Chinese nationalist discourses against themselves to articulate separate ethnic nations. Uyghurs frame China as an assimilationist transgression of ethnic boundaries for the benefit of the Han. Han frame their nation as under threat from Uyghurs and articulate China as a Han nation. The party-state’s nation-building project is unintentionally producing insecurity and reinforcing ethnic boundaries which remain obstacles to a shared sense of nationhood.

Abstract:
Recent reports on the forced sterilization of Uyghur women in the People’s Republic of China prompted experts to recognize the on-going situation as genocide. The aim of this thesis is to examine the different events that constitute the current genocide of the Uyghur nation in China, what led to it, and how it is likely to further develop. Based on Stanton’s 10 Stages of Genocide, a simple historical process research is conducted to analyse the causes and stages of the Uyghur genocide, and to make predictions regarding the ensuing stages and international intervention. By applying the theory of constructivism to the analysis, it becomes evident that genocide is a process that is produced by the social, economic, and political international structure, which renders many prevention measures ineffective. The thesis concludes that only immediate international intervention and prosecution of the perpetrator on the count of genocide conspiracy can prevent the irreversible destruction of the Uyghur nation.

Full text
Abstract:
The Sibe people in Northeast and Northwest China lived largely apart for over 250 years until information and communication technology (ICT) renewed regular contact. This thesis hypothesizes that the changes in Sibe interaction resulting from ICT use are redefining their ethnic identity – or minzu in Chinese. To investigate this hypothesis, data was gathered using a combination of interviews and ethnography of Sibe use of social media across platforms from Sina Weibo to QQ and WeChat. The findings contribute to research on both the concept and practice of minzu today and the role of ICT in the production of identity. They challenge essentialist explanations of the relation between ethnic minorities and the internet found in both cyber-utopian and cyber-realist literatures. First, they demonstrate that ethnicity – or minzu in Chinese – is a social construction and dynamic concept. Second, they show that ICT participates in identity construction in an interaction between users’ social and cultural needs and the characteristics of ICT itself. To support this understanding and show how different players shape ethnic identity in their use of ICT, the core chapters: trace the genealogy of minzu as a concept in relation to Sibe identity; analyze the representation of the Westward Migration of Sibe to Northwest China in official museums and unofficially online; and examine debates about how to transliterate Sibe language on the internet.

Full text
Abstract:
This study seeks to ascertain whether Chinese soft power can shape or sway the sense of belonging and identity of Uighurs within the Chinese state. The methodology used for this study will involve surveys and interviews, employing the two primary quantitative and qualitative methods. The findings from this study suggest that Chinese soft power, in the form of education in a controlled environment, does have this ability to sway Uighur to identify with the Chinese state. However, gauging the views of the wider educated Uighur community, indicates that the effectiveness of Chinese soft power is constrained by multiple social, political and economic issues. Based on the analysis of these findings, there appears to be three potential solutions: (i) create a multi-ethnic culture, (ii) incorporate civic nationalism as a component of PRC citizenship and (iii) to reformulate soft power into the form of shared goals that would require cooperation between Uighur and Hans to accomplish.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the “foreign talent” situation in Singapore with an ethnographic account of the lived experiences of immigrant PRC students on scholarships, or “PRC scholars.” For some two decades, the Singapore government has annually recruited middle school students from China in their hundreds, selecting them through tests and interviews, granting them full scholarships at either pre-undergraduate or undergraduate level, and, very often, “bonding” them to work subsequently in Singapore for a number of years. Wooed and appropriated in such a way as prized potential human capital, PRC scholars exemplify the Singapore state’s desire for “foreign talent.” In the first decade of the twenty-first century, as the influx of all manners of “foreign talent” into the small city-state gathered pace, local sentiments and discourses of resentment arose. The local-vs-“foreign talent” problem became a serious strain on a city and people proud of their cosmopolitanism. This thesis analyzes the “foreign talent” situation through the ethnographic “macro-trope” of desire. It argues that “foreign talent” is a site of convergence and divergence, collusion and collision, accommodation and contestation, fulfillment and failure of various individual, sociocultural, and political desires and longings. Through the lens of desire, and its psychoanalytic undertones and insights, this thesis looks ethnographically into the PRC scholars’ “foreign talent” journeys in nuanced ways. Based on ethnographic fieldworks carried out in a Chinese middle school and a Singaporean university, the thesis shows how Chinese students are constituted as specific subjects of desire, and how they subsequently develop certain perceptions, attitudes, and stereotypes about the local “other” as well as about themselves after arriving in Singapore as “foreign talent.” Infused with multifarious desires, the PRC scholars’ experiences are often characterized by angst and dissatisfaction; yet it is also argued that generative subjective transformations take place precisely amidst these dynamics and pragmatics of desiring. Ultimately, this thesis seeks to make possible an ethical re-imagination of the “foreign talent” situation in Singapore from the perspective of desire; to provide an account of the so far little-studied Chinese migrant students in the context of Singapore; and to speak more broadly to the cultural and subjective dimensions of human experiences in the context of educational mobility, identity politics, and globalization.

Resumo: Tendo como ponto de partida um trabalho de natureza etnográfica realizado na Casa de Macau em São Paulo, procuramos recuperar aqui a experiência de macaenses que abandonaram esta cidade na China e imigraram para São Paulo entre 1953 e 1977. A partir de narrativas sobre sua história individual e sobre as particularidades de Macau, e dialogando com relatos de macaenses no Rio de Janeiro, Lisboa e Macau, e com parte da historiografia contemporânea sobre Macau, pretendemos discutir de um lado as dinâmicas idenditárias deste grupo tendo a diáspora como referência, e de outro a forma como um pequeno grupo reage a mudanças tão profundas do seu entorno reinventando continuamente um universo de tradições. Na relação direta com os macaenses em entrevistas, conversas e registro de histórias de vida, pretendeu-se perceber histórias pouco conhecidas de Macau: aquelas que dizem respeito à saída sucessiva de grupos e famílias de macaenses em função das crises que marcaram o enclave desde meados do século XIX
Abstract: Considering the ethnographical work conducted in the Casa de Macau in São Paulo, we shall retrace here the experience of these people that abandoned their city in China and immigrate to São Paulo between 1953 and 1977. We intend to discuss both the identity dynamics of this group, with the diaspora as reference, and how this group reacts to the changes around them and continually reinvent a universe of traditions. In order to do that our research considered the narratives of their individual story (Macanese in São Paulo)and some reports of Macanese from Rio de Janeiro, Lisboa and Macao, Macao¿s singularities itself, and the contemporary historiography on it. From direct contact with interviews, talks and reports of life stories, we wanted to understand some unknown stories of Macao: those that concern to the successive movements of families leaving it due to the crises that has marked that enclave since the middle of the XIX century

Abstract:
本文透過深入分析《中國學生周報》(香港版) (1952-1974) 這份具影響力的青 年流行刊物的文本意識,嘗試剖析1950-1970年代香港青年社群如何介入、討論 甚至建構着自身文化及身份認同。《中國學生周報》這份由「南來文人」創立、 由美國政府機構提供營運資金的青年刊物,一方面透過傳播傳統中國文化以及 反共的政治意識形態作為刊物的文化及身份認同的意識,向當代的香港青年讀 者們灌輸着「中國人」身份認同意識;另一方面《中國學生周報》向當代的青年 讀者們傳播一種貶斥甚至是拒絕融入香港社會的意識形態,把香港社會視為負面 的「他者」,包括批評香港「重英輕中」的教育制度,香港的社會文化呈現「重 利蠻荒」、「文化沙漠」的意象,從而阻止香港的青年社群產生「香港認同」 的文化及身份意識。 可是,1970年代香港和中國大陸出現的政治變化,加上「中國人」身份認 同意識的改變和香港本土身份意識的出現,使《中國學生周報》強調的中國文 化意識和「中國人」身份認同意識變得過時,新一代的香港讀者亦隨之離去 。《中國學生周報》的歷史成為了一面鏡子,從中反映着1950-70年代香港社 會大眾的文化及身份認同意識的變遷。This research aims at offering a critical textual study of articles published in the Chinese Student Weekly (Hong Kong Version) (1952-1974). This weekly was an influential publication that targeted the youngster audience with an emphasis on promoting the values of traditional Chinese culture. Both the editorial team and some regular contributors to the weekly were scholars who sought refuge from China in Hong Kong. The weekly had attracted some contributions from young readers as well. The weekly might shape its readers' rather negative impressions of Hong Kong. The colonial system overstressed theimportance of English at schools, and it created some shortcomings in the culture of HongKong. It might lead to hindering the cultivation of the identity However, the political changes in Hong Kong and China during the 1970s, together withthe changing "Chinese identity" and the emergence of Hong Kong's local identity, theweekly's mphasis on Chinese culture lost its app e al to the youngsters in Hong Kong. Forthis reason, young readers ignored it. The history of the weekly can serve as a lens fromwhich one can observe the cultural changes in Hong Kong from the 1950s to the 1970s.o Hong Kong.

Abstract:
The Internet offers new ways of imaging and 'imagining' national belonging and cultural identities in contemporary Chinese societies such as Singapore. The Chinese society is also a key representative in Tu Wei-Ming's first symbolic universe - including China, Hong Kong and Taiwan - under a 'Cultural China' (Tu 1994). Various cultural discourses indicate that this nation-state is capable of managing culture to maintain national competitiveness within global capitalism (Wee 2000, Chua 1995). This 'local national cultural ism' is significantly manifested in Chinese media and entertainment websites from Singapore. Within the Asia Pacific region, the notion of an emerging 'pan-Chinese' cultural identity for commercial exchange and interaction with regional and global markers has been an appealing economic construct (Nyiri 1999). In Singapore the Chinese media and entertainment websites employ design strategies to attract foreign investors and cater for local 'heartlanders' with success. The Singapore media sire is carefully scrutinized, presented and aligned with its economic policies and agendas in presenting the country as a young and vibrant society. Although media and entertainment form a key aspect of popular culture in contemporary Singapore, the visual communication and content of the websites also provide an 'institutional memory' and design strategies which emphasize the distinctiveness of cultural identity. This is research interrogates the perception of 'Chinese' identity by Singaporean youth in a pilot study which analyses user responses to a prototype for interface design in web-based communication. In addition, a comparative analysis of three design components - colour, icon/symbol and visual metaphor ??? is examined with reference to the social construction of local, 'glocal' and cultural meanings in the media and entertainment websites-from Hong Kong, Shanghai and Singapore. The research concurs with current literature that cultural identity is mediated by design and communicative strategies to resonate with the target audience. Although the design strategies for representing a 'pan -Chinese' identity have yet to be explored, 'Cultural China' plays a major role in regional/global economic development.

Abstract:
L’histoire de l’immigration chinoise en Europe remonte au XVIe siècle. Les premiers journaux chinois y ont vu le jour trois siècles plus tard. Ils avaient pour but de chercher des solutions pour la Chine qui était troublée. Progressivement évolué, l’accent de ces médias ethniques est mis aujourd’hui plutôt sur la vie des immigrés chinois. Cependant, le gouvernement chinois a toujours en quelque sorte des contacts avec les communautés et les médias chinois d’outre -mer. Alors,cette thèse a pour but d’examiner les relations actuelles entre la politique chinoise,les migrants et les médias chinois en Europe.Aujourd'hui, sous le contexte de la mondialisation, les technologies de l'information et de la communication permet la diffusion globale à tous les types de médias chinois. Mais face aux sources d’informations de plus en plus variées,beaucoup d’immigrés chinois conservent une relation étroite et privilégiée avec les médias ethniques locaux. Parallèlement, le gouvernement chinois a toujours l’intention de maintenir un lien avec les migrants chinois du monde entier et de propager la culture chinoise à travers ces communautés, surtout les médias ethniques. En analysant l’évolution de la politique chinoise et les échanges entre les autorités chinoises et les médias chinois en Europe, on observe un rapprochement entre les deux acteurs, mais avec prudence. À travers une analyse de contenu des médias et une enquête effectuée dans sept pays européens sur la réception des immigrés chinois, cette recherche montre ensuite que les médias chinois d’outre-mer jouent le rôle d’un conciliateur et d’un porte-parole parmi les membres de la communauté
The history of Chinese immigration in Europe dates back to the sixteenth century. The first Chinese newspapers were born there three centuries later. This ethnic media was created to seek solutions for China which was troubled at that time. Its focus has been changed to the local Chinese immigrants’ life progressively for over a century. However, the Chinese government still somehow contacts with the Chinese communities and the ethnic media in Europe. So this thesis aims to study and reveal the current relationship among China’s policy, Chinese migrants and the Chinese language media in Europe. Nowadays, in the context of globalization, the information and communication technologies enables global broadcast for all kinds of Chinese media. But despite this variety of information sources, many Chinese immigrants in Europe maintain a close and special relationship with the ethnic media. Meanwhile, the Chinese government always intends to maintain a close relation with Chinese migrants around the world and spread the Chinese culture through these communities, especially through ethnic media. By analyzing the development of China’s policy and the interactions between the Chinese authorities and Chinese media in Europe, this thesis observes a special connection with caution. Then, through a content analysis of media and a survey of Chinese immigrants conducted in seven European countries, this research reveals that the Chinese over seas media fulfils the functions of a conciliator and a spokes person within the community

Abstract:
在香港的英屬殖民時期,“混血兒(Eurasian)被限定為一個特別的種族分類。其身份在殖民主義和種族主義的多重迫力下被限定和汙名化,其社會境遇一路荊棘,深受社會道德機制的譴責與排斥。然而,在當代香港的後殖民語境中,混血兒的境遇發生了戲劇性的變化。“混血兒作為“種族分類(racial category)已然消失,現在則普遍以一種美化的象徵性身份(emblematic identity)概念而存在。人們對混血兒的認識亦脫離了種族與階級背景,而更多地建立在一種文化想像上。它甚至成為了“國際化的代名詞和“優生的標準之一,被媒體審美刻板化及商品化。本文觀察了香港混血兒在殖民時期與後殖民時期中的境遇變遷,通過研究“混血兒概念的建立、消失、和回潮,剖析“種族(race)是如何在不同語境中被建構的,並試圖解構種族理論、種族主義的政治、社會與文化淵源。
Within Hong Kong, the term “Eurasian once designated a stigmatized racial category, a group of “natural aberrations that were positioned in an embarrassing social niche within colonial society. As a consequence of this, Eurasians experienced severe racism and intense social pressures. In keeping pace with the end of colonialism and the rise of the new global capitalist order, the racial category of “Eurasian has been abandoned. However, somewhat surprisingly, the status of Eurasians in this day and age has been dramatically reversed. It now only exists as a descriptive term for a desirable physical type, which is assumed, to some extent, to be emblematic of “natural beauty. Being “Eurasian has now become a locally imagined “superior result of reproduction. By examining the creation, decline, and recent rebirth of the concept of “Eurasian, I hope to raise several important questions about race. Applying historical research to the construction of race requires analysis of how shifting political and social power dynamics have shaped the realization and so-called “authenticity of the “Eurasian category. At a broader level, this study seeks to add to the debate about how the idea of “race is constrained by political, social and cultural factors, and how people culturally imagine “the science of race in different social contexts.
