Changing Identities of the Southeast Asian Chinese Since World War II - Edited by Gungwu Wang and Jennifer Cushman - 文宇宙｜Bookniverse

In June 1985, forty historians, economists, anthropologists and political scientists gathered at the Australian National University in Canberra to reexamine current thinking about the parameters of identity for people of Chinese descent who live in Southeast Asia today. The symposium, ‘Changing Identities of the Southeast Asian Chinese since World War II’ (June 14-16) marked the end of a three-year project organized by Wang Gungwu which sought to explore various aspects of Chinese community life in Southeast Asia.
