In: The Australian journal of Chinese affairs: Aozhong, Heft 13, S. 69-84

Abstract

In July and August 1983, the author travelled through four provinces. From dicussions with officials concerned with overseas Chinese and with scholars at universities, he found an enormous interest in overseas Chinese. Drawing upon official statements and published essays and commentaries, as well as discussions with fellow academics and local specialists, the author outlines the reasons for the renewed interest in overseas Chinese in the PRC.
