The memeification of China’s Twitter diplomacy, 2019–2022
This study examines the use of memes as part of China’s digital diplomacy between 2019 and 2022. Few studies have examined how memes are used to advance state interests in relation to China’s public diplomacy. In this context, the main objective of this study is to provide a preliminary but comprehensive analysis of the content, objectives and novel practice of using memes to communicate China’s foreign policy goals on Twitter. To achieve this, w…

China's Smart Diaspora Governance
This article investigates the transformative impact of information communication technology on China's extraterritorial governance practices directed at Chinese populations residing overseas. Employing textual analysis on official documents, media reports, and data from qualitative interviews with ethnic Chinese association leaders in Europe, we contend that e-governance and social media platforms, notably Weixin, are instrumental in reshaping tr…
Digitized diaspora governance during the Covid‐19 pandemic
We explore how the Chinese diaspora state during the COVID‐19 pandemic in 2020 managed to transform a severe health crisis into a geo‐political opportunity for transnational nation‐building through diaspora governance based on extensive use of social media technologies. By adopting a multi‐scalar perspective, we analyse the intertwined nature of top‐down and bottom‐up processes of the Chinese Party‐state's diaspora mobilization. Based on discours…
The Initial Digitalization of Chinese Diplomacy (2019–2021)
The way in which Chinese diplomats communicate has changed recently, from being mostly reactive and pragmatic to being rhetorically more combative. This has generated strong academic, media, and policy interest. However, less academic attention has been devoted to the employment of social media for China’s new diplomatic communication strategy. By analyzing the recent employment of Twitter by China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA), this articl…
Introduction
This introduction provides a presentation of the articles in this special issue by framing the contributions in the context of new dynamics related to Chinese migration studies and the ongoing discussions of the impact of China’s powerful economic position. The articles offer new empirical insights to develop new understandings of recent migration and mobilities between China and Europe. By focusing on the changing socio‐economic composition of C…
New Chinese Migrations
This volume of 13 studies is part of the new Routledge series called ‘Asian Migration’ that so far encompasses five publications addressing ‘various trends of international migration in Asia ... focusing on the plights of Asian migrants within and beyond Asia, as well as levels of governance and management of migration’ (https://www.routledge.com/Routledge-Series-on-Asian-Migration/book-series/RSAM). This general description is in accordance with…

Institutionalizing Recent Rural Emigration from China to Europe
The prevalence of irregular migration from a small region in the central parts of Fujian province has associated Chinese emigration with organized crime, exploitation and opportunism in a range of popular and academic writings both in China and outside China. Although migration brokers (“snakeheads”) play an important role in maintaining migratory flows already underway, they should not be seen as the root cause of migration from Fujian. In this …
Chinese Migration in Germany
Conclusion
Channels of Entry and Preferred Destinations
As globalization spread during the 1990s, and especially since the turn of the millennium, European states have increasingly claimed their right to assert their sovereignty by regulating migration at the level of the individual (OECD, 2001: 76–81). Political parties have succeeded in gaining support on policy statements pertaining exclusively to migration. For example, recent legislation in Denmark restricts the categories of persons eligible as …
Myten om den kinesiske entrepenørånd
This article attempts to question the assumption that Confucian values are inherent to the Chinese family and that these values can explain economic success among Chinese overseas. An analysis of Chinese immigrants in Denmark unveils that cultural values are renegotiated in the Danish context as a product of socio-economic conditions. As a result a strong patriarchal family institution has merged and is sustained by the demands of the ethnis nich…
