Liu explores the experiences of Yi migrant workers in Shenzhen, China, investigating how their cultural heritage influences their search for identity and a sense of belonging. This book uncovers the intricate relationship between heritage and homemaking, examining how Yi migrants engage in their cultural practices within various settings such as families, workplaces, restaurants, tourist sites, and social media platforms.Through thorough fieldwork and interviews, the book demonstrates how ethnic heritage acts as a means for migrants to establish a feeling of connection during their migration journeys. Nevertheless, challenges and tensions emerge in the realm of home, illustrating the dynamic interplay between heritage and the construction of a sense of place. It also enriches our comprehension of the link between cultural heritage and the experiences of migrants, shedding light on the complexities of identity development in a globalised world.A valuable resource for scholars and researchers in disciplines like anthropology, migration studies, cultural studies, and Chinese studies, as well as professionals and policymakers interested in migrant integration, cultural heritage preservation, and urban development.The Inroduction of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

Chinese Borderlands in Transition: Mobility, Penetration, and Transformation offers a compelling exploration of borderlands as dynamic cultural spaces.Through a collection of thought-provoking essays, this edited volume examines the representations, negotiations, practices, and experiences that define border regions across time and place. It illuminates the intricate intersections of identity, space, and power through three key lenses: the mobility of cultural borderlands in Southern China, the penetration of socio-political borderlands in Northern China, and the transformation of traditional borderlands in modern China. With its interdisciplinary approach and diverse case studies, Chinese Borderlands in Transition invites readers to critically engage with the intricate dynamics of these liminal spaces, from the realms of literature and art to migration and geopolitical struggles.This book is an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in understanding the fluidity and significance of borderlands in shaping cultures and societies.
