The early 21st century has seen significant changes in the international migration patterns of Chinese individuals, particularly regarding their numbers, destinations, and activities abroad. Europe, once a traditional host with stable diasporas, has transformed into a dynamic hub for Chinese migrants. This multi-disciplinary volume explores this development, drawing from various research projects on Chinese communities across different European countries. As global economic trends continue to drive the movement of Chinese individuals seeking new opportunities, the research findings presented here are both timely and relevant. The volume is organized into four parts: an overview of the history of Chinese migration to Europe, focusing on the late 20th and early 21st centuries; a section on the career contexts of expatriate Chinese; a study on heritage language learning for the second generation; and an exploration of cultural identity, including cultural memory through letters and the significance of festivities and media. This work is expected to serve as a valuable resource for those interested in this evolving subject or engaged in related professional fields. Contributors include Jieping Fan, Yi Fu, Eline Joosten, Beatrice Knerr, Yuan Li, Yue Liu, and others.
