摘要
论文从离散族群的视角出发,简要介绍离散概念的历史沿革及其引入华侨华人研究领域的相关争议,并在回顾明清以降离散华人族群与祖(籍)国关系流变的史实基础上,验证尤西·沙恩等学者关于塑造离散者与祖(籍)国关系主要因素的理论假设,探讨了在历史变迁的大背景下,离散华人族群与祖(籍)国关系周期性亲疏变化的规律与原因。论文认为,离散理论的引入有利于我们更好理解全球化时代下的国家关系与族群认同。数百年来,离散华人虽身居异域他乡,但对于祖(籍)国各领域事务的关注、参与和影响却从未停止。伴随着时代变迁,其作为离散族群与祖(籍)国间的相互关系,也呼应于中华大地的浮沉兴衰和国际格局的调整不断变化。从祖(籍)国政府争取侨心的角度而言,离散群体的非政治属性回避了对国籍等敏感问题的区分,从而更有利于增进海外(入籍)华人群体的情感归属,也有助于在祖籍国文化的向心感召下创造更多的族群活动空间。
From the perspective of diasporic theory, this research introduces the history of "diaspora" and its relevant debates regarding to the areas of overseas Chinese studies. By reviewing the historical facts of the relations between Chinese diaspora and their native countries since the Ming and Qing Dynasty, it verifies the theoretical hypothesis of the main factors shaping diaspora--native country relations proposed by Yossi Shain and other academics, and also discusses the rules and causations of the periodical variations of the relations between Chinese diaspora and their native country under the historical background. It concludes that the introduction of diasporic theory may favor the understanding of the interstate relations and ethnic identity under the background of globalization. Over hundreds of years, the Chinese diaspora never stop their attentions, participations, and influences to their native country. Along with the change of times, their relations with their native country also reflect to the rise and fall of China as well as the deafferentations of international system. In terms of seeking supports from overseas Chinese by the government of native country, the non-political nature of diaspora avoids the sensitive issues such as nationalities, and therefore it may be helpful for enhancing the emotional closeness between overseas (naturalized) Chinese and native country, as well as leaving broader space for their activities under the inspirations of their ancestral culture.
