China schätzt die weltweite Zahl der chinastämmigen Menschen außer­halb der Volksrepublik auf 60 Millionen Personen. Peking betrachtet sie, unabhängig von ihrer Staatsbürgerschaft, allesamt als Angehörige Chinas. Auslandschinesen spielen aus Sicht Xi Jinpings eine "unersetzliche Rolle" für Chinas Aufstieg zur Weltmacht. Peking bemüht sich intensiv darum, auslandschinesische Ressourcen für eigene Zielsetzungen in den Be­reichen Wirtschaft, Wissenschaft und Technik sowie Diplomatie und Soft Power nutzbar zu machen. Auch von Menschen chinesischer Herkunft in Deutschland fordert Peking, die Beziehungen zwischen China und Deutschland zu vertiefen. Aber nicht nur das: Sie sollen als "inoffizielle Botschafter" auch Chinas Narra­tive in der deutschen Öffentlichkeit verbreiten, Chinas "Kerninteressen" verteidigen und beim Wissens- und Technologietransfer nach China helfen. Chinas Diasporapolitik sind gleichwohl Grenzen gesetzt: Die Reaktionen chinesischer Migranten auf Chinas Ambitionen fallen heterogen aus. Sie reichen von der Bereitschaft zur Kooperation bis hin zu Desinteresse oder offener Ablehnung. Deutsche Akteure sollten ein umfassendes Verständnis der chinesischen Diasporapolitik und der damit verknüpften Ziele und Praktiken ent­wickeln. So wie in Peking auch sollte die Diasporapolitik als wichtiger Bestandteil der chinesischen Außenpolitik wahrgenommen werden. Erst auf dieser Basis können dort, wo deutsche Interessen, Rechtsprinzipien oder gesellschaftliche Werte berührt sind, Antworten auf Chinas Ambitionen gefunden werden - ohne damit zugleich Menschen chinesischer Herkunft einem Generalverdacht auszusetzen. Auch sollten deutsche Akteure ihr Engagement in Communities von Menschen mit chinesischem Migrationshintergrund ausbauen, anstatt dieses Feld chinesischen Behörden zu überlassen. (Autorenreferat)

China's meteoric rise and ever expanding economic and cultural footprint have been accompanied by widespread global disquiet. Whether admiring or alarmist, media discourse and representations of China often tap into the myths and prejudices that emerged through specific historical encounters. These deeply embedded anxieties have shown great resilience, as in recent media treatments of SARS and the H5N1 virus, which echoed past beliefs connecting China and disease. Popular perceptions of Asia, too, continue to be framed by entrenched racial stereotypes: its people are unfathomable, exploitative, cunning, or excessively hardworking. This interdisciplinary collection of original essays offers a broad view of the mechanics that underlie Yellow Peril discourse by looking at its cultural deployment and repercussions worldwide. Building on the richly detailed historical studies already published in the context of the United States and Europe, contributors to Yellow Perils confront the phenomenon in Italy, Australia, South Africa, Nigeria, Mongolia, Hong Kong, and China itself. With chapters based on archival material and interviews, the collection supplements and often challenges superficial journalistic accounts and top-down studies by economists and political scientists. Yellow Peril narratives, contributors find, constitute cultural vectors of multiple kinds of anxieties, spanning the cultural, racial, political, and economic. Indeed, the emergence of the term "Yellow Peril" in such disparate contexts cannot be assumed to be singular, to refer to the same fears, or to revolve around the same stereotypes. The discourse, even when used in reference to a single country like China, is therefore inherently fractured and multiple. The term "Yellow Peril" may feel unpalatable and dated today, but the ethnographic, geographic, and historical breadth of this collection—experiences of Chinese migration and diaspora, historical reflections on the discourse of the Yellow Peril in China, and contemporary analyses of the global ...

Burnt by the Sun examines the history of the first Korean diaspora in a Western society during the highly tense geopolitical atmosphere of the Soviet Union in the late 1930s. Author Jon K. Chang demonstrates that the Koreans of the Russian Far East were continually viewed as a problematic and maligned nationality (ethnic community) during the Tsarist and Soviet periods. He argues that Tsarist influences and the various forms of Russian nationalism(s) and worldviews blinded the Stalinist regime from seeing the Koreans as loyal Soviet citizens. Instead, these influences portrayed them as a colonizing element (labor force) with unknown and unknowable political loyalties. One of the major findings of Chang's research was the depth that the Soviet state was able to influence, penetrate, and control the Koreans through not only state propaganda and media, but also their selection and placement of Soviet Korean leaders, informants, and secret police within the populace. From his interviews with relatives of former Korean OGPU/NKVD (the predecessor to the KGB) officers, he learned of Korean NKVD who helped deport their own community. Given these facts, one would think the Koreans should have been considered a loyal Soviet people. But this was not the case, mainly due to how the Russian empire and, later, the Soviet state linked political loyalty with race or ethnic community. During his six years of fieldwork in Central Asia and Russia, Chang interviewed approximately sixty elderly Koreans who lived in the Russian Far East prior to their deportation in 1937. This oral history along with digital technology allowed him to piece together Soviet Korean life as well as their experiences working with and living beside Siberian natives, Chinese, Russians, and the Central Asian peoples. Chang also discovered that some two thousand Soviet Koreans remained on North Sakhalin island after the Korean deportation was carried out, working on Japanese-Soviet joint ventures extracting coal, gas, petroleum, timber, and other resources. This showed that Soviet socialism was not ideologically pure and was certainly swayed by Japanese capitalism and the monetary benefits of projects that paid the Stalinist regime hard currency for its resources

The study examines the general and excellent in the Arctic policy of India and China and the likelihood of rivalry between the two Asian powers in the allocation of resources to the Arctic. Also, Indian and Chinese research trends on Arctic topics were considered.Since the middle of XX century. India and China act as long-standing rivals. Periodically, military clashes broke out between the two sides on a common border. Despite the fact that the key territorial issues on the common border between India and China are resolved military provocations from both sides do not stop. The latest incident was the transfer of Indian troops to the Chinese border zone in the province of Sikkim. Both powers of Asia are major consumers of energy resources, they are more or less interested in the situation on the global energy market.In the Arctic there are colossal reserves of various resources. Certain difficulties and limitations with access to resources and their equitable distribution can force these countries to compete with each other. However, the lack of a specific position on Arctic issues or the formulated regional strategy for India and China creates a lot of doubt about their true intentions. The study of research trends, the activity of Indian and Chinese business structures, as well as the arctic activities of India and China, gives approximate answers to this question.The potentials of India and China are very different in the Arctic. China's strengths are active participation in international scientific research, the availability of a qualified ice-class crew, active investment in energy and infrastructure projects in the Arctic countries, and fairly stable trade relations with most Arctic countries. The weak side of China is its negative image. Residents of many Arctic countries are very wary of the «rise of China» and its growing interest in the Arctic.Strengths of India are a positive image and a representative diaspora in the Arctic countries, especially in the US and Canada. In the future this will allow Delhi to successfully promote initiatives in the Arctic. The weak side of India can be considered the absence of a ship «icebreaker class», the weak investment activity of Indian business structures and poor knowledge of Arctic problems from the point of view of Indian issues. ; В исследовании рассматриваются общее и отличное в арктической политике Индии и Китая и вероятность соперничества между этими двумя азиатскими державами в вопросе распределения ресурсов Арктики. Также были рассмотрены индийские и китайские исследовательские тенденции по арктической тематике.Начиная с середины XX в. Индия и Китай выступают в качестве давних соперников. Периодически между обеими сторонами вспыхивали военные стычки на общей границе. Несмотря на то что ключевые территориальные вопросы на общей границе между Индией и Китаем урегулированы военные провокации с обеих сторон не прекращаются. Последним инцидентом стал переход индийских отрядов на зоны китайской границы в районе провинции Сикким. Обе державы Азии являются крупными потребителями энергоресурсов, то в той или иной степени заинтересованы в ситуации на мировом энергетическом рынке.В Арктике имеются колоссальные запасы различных ресурсов. Определенные сложности и ограничения с получением доступа к ресурсам и их справедливому распределению могут заставить эти страны соперничать друг с другом. Однако отсутствие конкретной позиции по вопросам Арктики или сформулированной региональной стратегии у Индии и Китая создает массу сомнений по поводу их истинных намерений. Изучение исследовательских тенденций, активности индийских и китайских бизнес-структур, а также арктической деятельности Индии и Китая дает лишь приблизительные ответы на этот вопрос.Потенциалы Индии и Китая в Арктике различаются. Сильными сторонами Китая выступают активное участие в международных научных исследованиях, наличие квалифицированного экипажа «ледового класса», активное инвестирование в энергетические и инфраструктурные проекты стран Арктики, достаточно стабильные торговые отношения с большинством арктических стран. Слабой стороной Китая выступает её негативный образ. Жители многих арктических стран с большой настороженностью относятся к «подъему Китая» и её растущему интересу к Арктике.Сильными сторонами Индии выступают положительный образ и представительная диаспора в арктических странах, особенно в США и Канаде. В будущем это позволит Дели успешно продвигать инициативы в Арктике. Слабой стороной Индии можно считать отсутствие судна «ледокольного класса», слабая инвестиционная активность индийских бизнес-структур и слабо изученность арктических проблем с точки зрения индийских вопросов.
