Abstract Under the changing demographic effects of Chinese migratory waves in Europe and in the global context of the Covid-19 pandemic, Chinese migratory patterns to Europe as well as the lives of migrants and their descendants in European countries have been renewed since the 2010s, both in material and symbolic or emotional ways. This special issue includes five articles shedding new light on the patterns of Chinese migration to Europe, and on the dynamics of their everyday lives in and beyond the European countries. As the special issue editor, I first argue that Chinese overseas, as an important part of global China, offer a privileged site of study for understanding Chinese society from inside and outside. Then, based on the literature review on Chinese migration to and within Europe from the 1980s to post-2020, I introduce specificities of contemporary Chinese migration to Europe and the Chinese presence in European countries, and highlight four main demographic features: the growth in the population of descendants, the aging of the first-generation migrants, the massive arrival of students and skilled migrants, and the feminization of migration. Thirdly, I provide an overview of the five articles included in this special issue. Finally, I conclude the introduction by underlying the contributions of this volume, the theoretical frameworks that they borrow and consolidate, and new avenues for research opened up by this special issue.

Four decades ago, in the 1980s, network analysis did not anticipate the growing importance of transnational and diasporic communities “embedded” in more than one country. The integrating theoretical framework of transnational social mobilities is adopted for this article on Chinese talent mobility in the diaspora with a focus on the mobilities between China and countries in the OECD. By examining macro migration data within the OECD, we analyze emerging trends and patterns of the movement of highly skilled Chinese transnational talent. In light of China’s rising economic power and the concomitant growth of a Chinese transnational diaspora, we trace the trajectory of China’s brain drain, brain gain and brain circulation in OECD countries over the past forty years. Chinese talent mobility in the new economy consists of “transnational circuits” characterized by the circulation of goods, people, knowledge and information. This article theorizes the new modality of “circulation” in terms of transnational social mobilities.

Soon Keong Ong (王纯强)
This article examines the factors behind the changing relationships between Chinese born in Singapore, i.e. the so-called Babas, and Chinese born in China from the late nineteenth century to the early 1930s. It observes that while their interactions were congenial and interdependent in the nineteenth century, they became increasingly contentious and antagonistic into the early twentieth century. Because the Babas had settled outside China and created a creolized culture through localization and Westernization, their supposed straying from Chinese culture and distancing from China were used by scholars and the Chinese themselves to explain the growing gulf between the Babas and the China-born. But as this article argues, in the period under study, the tension and animosity between the two Chinese communities ran deeper than mere cultural differences, as they were aggravated by social changes, economic competitions, and divergent political allegiances.

While the Kuomintang leadership propagated the myth of the “overseas Chinese as the mother of the revolution” for their own political ends, the myth was quickly internalized by overseas Chinese themselves. The process of internalization underwent three stages: from acceptance during the late 1920s to self-proclamation as the “mother of the revolution” and directing criticisms at the KMT during the late 1940s, to even extending this sense of entitlement to the CCP during the post-1949 period. By exploring the agency enjoyed by overseas Chinese, this article aims to examine how the myth of the “overseas Chinese as the mother of the revolution” was transformed into political capital for the KMT’s overseas work, even in ways that the KMT leadership could not have envisaged nearly half a century earlier.

The article recounts the transnational political activities of Situ Meitang, who led the Hongmen Chee Kung Tong in the Americas in support of the Nationalist government during the Second World War. At the end of the Chinese Civil War, he endorsed the People’s Republic of China and settled in Beijing. The article shows that current biographies of Situ ignore the complexity of his political ideas, including a desire for democracy in China and the economic development of southern China. Through the lens of Situ Meitang, the article also considers the complicated political loyalties and sense of belonging among Chinese overseas who supported Situ Meitang’s political actions, as well as the transnational circulation of information, resources, and ideas.
