[...]Chinese diasporas are, in gross numbers, among the largest and geographically most widespread in the world. The focus on the dynamic relationship between the Chinese state and Chinese diasporas also fills a gap in the recent "China rising" literature, which has been preoccupied with the Chinese state's role in building soft power or "infiltrating" foreign countries and populations (Hamilton and Joske 2018). By exploring various local approaches to mobilising Chinese overseas within the area of legal affairs and public administration, investment, e-governance, public diplomacy, local urban restructuring, and Covid-19 responses, Martina Bofulin argues that diaspora policy implementation at the local level is undertaken with a high degree of independence from the centre in Beijing. [...]the third contribution by Maggi W. H. Leung investigates the notions, politics, and practices of the caring Chinese transnational state emerging during the Covid-19 pandemic.
[…从总数上看,中国侨民是世界上规模最大、分布最广的群体之一。对中国政府与海外华人之间动态关系的关注也填补了最近“中国崛起”文学的空白,这些文学一直专注于中国政府在建设软实力或“渗透”外国和人口方面的作用(Hamilton and Joske 2018)。通过探索在法律事务和公共管理、投资、电子政务、公共外交、地方城市重建和应对新冠肺炎等领域动员海外华人的各种地方方法,玛蒂娜·博富林认为,地方层面的侨民政策实施与北京中心高度独立。[…梁伟宏的第三篇文章调查了新冠疫情期间出现的关怀中国跨国国家的观念、政治和实践。

The article examines recent transformations in diaspora governance at the local level, particularly the new, more integrated approach towards emigrated Chinese developed in places with longstanding and strong emigration movements. These places, known as "hometowns of Overseas Chinese" or qiaoxiang, have been actively reaching out to their expatriates for decades, but the initiatives and strategies for reaching out have changed recently due to central government policies, increased return migration, and the widespread use of information and communications technologies. Based on the case study of Qingtian County in the eastern province of Zhejiang, the paper examines different ways in which local government is reaching out to its members abroad, focusing on activities in the area of legal affairs and public administration, investments, digital transformation, public diplomacy, local urban restructuring, and response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The findings reveal innovation and experimentation at the local level rather than the passive implementation of central policies, and point to the need for further unpacking of the role of the state in diaspora engagement.

This paper examines the notions, politics, and practice of care that have characterised the transnational Chinese state during the Covid-19 pandemic. Drawing on policy and media analyses, participant observation, and qualitative interviews with 21 Chinese people in the Netherlands, the paper maps out three care circuits: from the diaspora to China, from China to the diaspora, and from China to the world. The findings show how the pandemic has offered a stage for emotional ties, patriotism, and moral responsibility to be played out, cultivated, and contested. These in turn have an impact on the economic and political agendas of the transnational Chinese state.
