The field of Overseas Chinese studies is inextricably linked with the historical and social context of thenation-state in which the field was established. In discussing the development of historical studies of theChinese in North America in the second half of the 20th century, this paper examines how OverseasChinese studies was established as a specific research field and reveals the field's characteristics whichare tied with the American context as a whole. From the early 1960s, Chinese immigrant intellectuals inthe Canadian and American West Coast authored histories of the overseas Chinese in Chinese. Thesestudies relied on the historical materials of Chinese immigrants and on Chinese secondary sources publishedunder the Overseas Chinese policy of the Taiwanese KMT. From the 1970s, as part of the Asian-American movement, second generation and immigrant middle-class Chinese intellectuals established thenew framework of Asian-American studies. This field proposed a scholarship which legitimated the historicalexperience and presence of the Asian in American society and was thus premised on Asians asAmerican citizens. The most recent scholarship on the overseas Chinese has introduced the concept oftransnationalism, which is premised on mobility, and several empirical historical studies have been producedin this field to overcome the nation-state paradigm.

多文化空間に生きる越境者集団における共同性再構築のメカニズムを、地域間比較のもと、チベット難民、中国系カナダ人、タイ北部の雲南系ムスリム、カザフ人帰還者の諸事例を人類学的・歴史学的視点から実証的に分析した。その結果、越境者の共同性再構築には、越境者ネットワーク、無私/慈悲の精神にもとづく個人や宗教者のリーダーシップの存在、ホスト社会との政策を最大限活用する共生の戦略、祝祭と宗教実践をとおした「伝統」の主張などが重要な道筋となることが明らかにされた。また、あらたな地域空間の創出を理解する上で、「下からの共生」という視点が重要となることが提起された。
