ItemThe new migrant-led transformation of the Chinese community media in Australia(China Social Sciences Press ~ Zhongguo Shehui Kexue Chubanshe, 2017)Overseas Chinese media is an essential part of the international media system. Due to the close relationship between Australia and China and the huge population of Chinese Australians, overseas Chinese media is more typical in Australia than in other countries or regions. This research adopts a multi-methodology approach which combines long-term observations, interviews, and textual analyses. It seeks to examine the changes that resulted from the resumption of the significant immigration from the mainland China to Australia in the early 1990s, with the purpose to provide a comprehensive analysis of the Chinese mediascape in Australia from a political economic perspective. Specifically, the changing dynamics of the Chinese community media will be divided into three stages, which are the ‘re-establishment’ phase from the early 1990s to the late 1990s, the ‘diversification’ phase from the late 1990s to the late 2000s and the ‘transformation’ phase since the late 2000s. Factors such as the Sino-Australian relationship, the constitution of the Chinese Australians, economic activities of the Chinese community and technological globalisation will be considered when discussing the driving forces, characteristics, development patterns and typical cases of the Chinese community media in different stages

ItemThe Australian Chinese community reshaped by two historical trends: A dual-embeddedness perspective(China Social Sciences Press ~ Zhongguo Shehui Kexue Chubanshe, 2017)With China continuing its policy of reform and opening and Australia strategically turning to Asia, the period since the mid-1980s has witnessed escalating Chinese immigration to Australia. Against this backdrop, the ethnic Chinese community in Australia has changed significantly, particularly in respect of its demographic characteristics, socio-economic activities, and status, and is now widely perceived as a model and middle class ethnic community. Adopting a “dual-embeddedness” framework, this chapter offers a political-economic analysis of the ethnic Chinese community's transformation over the past three decades or so, highlighting the influence of socio-economic and political macro-contexts and ever-increasing inflows of Chinese migrants, students, investors, and tourists. This chapter details the expression and mechanism of Australian Chinese community’s dual embeddedness. It shows that the ethnic Chinese community in Australia has been simultaneously embedded in the nation building processes in both Australia and China and suggests that the community is not merely a beneficiary of these processes, but also an active agent and contributor.
