摘要
全球化进程改变了华侨的生存状态,从而对他们的生存身份产生了新的影响,对他们的身份归属和文化认同带来新的特点。过去,华人侨居或移民海外一般是为了逃难,如躲避战乱或灾荒,逃避政治迫害;现在,华人侨居或移民海外往往是因为正常的经济交流、贸易活动和技术移民。过去,许多国家要求华侨华人完全接受居住国的文化;现在各国都不同程度地接受侨民的多元文化性质。过去,华侨华人不是落地生根,就是盼望落叶归根;现在,他们却在两种文化之间自由游弋,成为不同文化之间联系的天然纽带。过去,华侨华人对祖国的感情更多地是基于祖国的积贫积弱而盼望中华民族的复兴;现在,对祖国的感情更多来自对祖国蒸蒸日上、繁荣发展的自豪感。
The progress of globalization has changed the living state of overseas Chinese, exerting new influence upon their identity of being and bringing about fresh characteristics to their identity attachment and their cultural identification. In the past, Chinese emigrated mostly in order to escape from the wartime chaos, famine or political persecution; now, their emigration is often on account of normal financial and trade activities. Many countries used to take measures to acculturate the overseas Chinese while most of the countries are willing to accept the diverse culture they have brought there. Overseas Chinese used to have only two choices: one is to live overseas to their death and the other is to come back to their native land in their late years. However, they are coming to and fro bridging two different cultures. The affection of overseas Chinese towards the motherland was mostly embodied in their expectation of the revival of China, whereas their attachment more originates from their pride of the motherland increasingly prosperous.
