Introduction: Contested Globalization and the Belt and Road Initiative
This celebratory issue of our journal appears at a moment when globalization is under serious threat after thirty years of almost unrestrained expansion.The explosive challenges of increasing income inequality and environmental degradation combined with the widespread perception of China's aggressive challenge to US world leadership and the global rise of populism have engendered a trend toward regionalization and defensiveness about national sel…

Settling across the Strait of Taiwan under Japanese Colonialism (1895–1945): The Migrant Identity
From their beginning in the seventeenth century, the migrations across the Strait of Taiwan took place between societies of the same ethnicity. This did not change by the cession of Taiwan to the Japanese Empire in 1895, but despite this, distinct migrant identities then emerged on both sides of the Strait. The new migrant regime in mainland China by Japan’s domineering position purposely privileged the Taiwanese who went there, and facilitated t…
Reservations About an Evolutionary Approach to Cross-Border Mobility
What is in a rate? The task assigned to all contributors to the volume Globalising Migration History is to calculate cross-cultural migration rates (CCMR). This serves to make migratory movements comparable to one another across the Eurasian continent. The basic hypothesis tested in the volume is that these movements are indeed comparable to one another, meaning, first, that looking over the past 500 years neither in Europe, nor in Asia did the I…
Mainland Chinese Migrants in Taiwan, 1895-1945: The Drawbacks of Being Legal
In Taiwan, a population of migrant workers from mainland China came into being during the period when the Japanese colonial regime was in power, from 1895 to 1945. In the 1930s, their numbers rose to at least 60,000. These migrants worked and lived in the rapidly developing big cities of Taiwan, where they supplemented the labour market. Before the Japanese occupied the island, migrants from mainland China had worked and settled continually in Ta…

The Huaqiao in Taiwan 1895-1945: Their Ambivalent Localization
The Taiwan huaqiao are the migrants from mainland China who went to work in Taiwan during the Japanese colonial period (1895-1945). They were mostly workers, who were ethnically akin to the local population, but had an official status as foreign migrants and were supposed to return to their country of origin. In fact many among them tended to settle permanently and as a result of the discrimination also tended to form a social underclass; their n…
