Drawing on rich, multi-method ethnographic research in Australia, this book unveils the dynamic ways ethnic Chinese communities self-organise, offering a new theoretical framework to dissect the dimensions, scope, and essence of their re-organisation efforts and the wider implications thereof.This work enriches our comprehension of the local and global influence of Chinese immigrants and their associations in the contemporary era. It serves as a valuable reference for scholars and students interested in migration, diaspora studies, and the role of ethnic and migrant organisations in civic life and community building. Transnational Ties, Local Lives provides a critical examination of the intricate relationships between identity, belonging, and community in a globalised world.This engaging book presents a bottom-up perspective on the personal dreams and realities of migrants who establish their lives and homes in new countries. It encapsulates the spirit of change and resilience, crafting a story that echoes the diverse experiences of diaspora communities across the globe.
