Аннотация:This chapter theorizes "double diaspora" from the experiences of Chinese Canadians in Beijing who had previously emigrated to Canada from China and later "returned". Early notions of diaspora portray the phenomenon as catastrophic – the traumatic dispersal of victimized groups from an original homeland, and the salience of that homeland in the collective memory of a forcibly dispersed group (Cohen, 2008). More recently the concept has been extended to include labour, trade, imperial, and cultural diasporas.
