Chineseness across Borders: Renegotiating Chinese Identities
in China and the United States
By Andrea Louie
Duke University Press

[Publisher's Description] What happens when Chinese
American youths travel to mainland China in search of their
ancestral roots, only to realize that in many ways they still feel out
of place, or when mainland Chinese realize that the lives of the
Chinese abroad may not be as good as they had imagined? By
considering programs designed to facilitate interactions
between overseas Chinese and their ancestral homelands,
Andrea Louie highlights how these programs not only create
opportunities for new connections but also reveal the
disjunctures that now separate Chinese Americans from China
and mainland Chinese from the Chinese abroad.
