This is the first text to address British Chinese culture. It
explores British Chinese cultural politics in terms of national and
international debates on the Chinese diaspora, race, multiculture,
identity and belonging, and transnational 'Chineseness'.
Collectively, the essays look at how notions of 'British Chinese
culture' have been constructed and challenged in the visual arts,
theatre and performance, and film, since the mid-1980s. They
contest British Chinese invisibility, showing how practice is not
only heterogeneous, but is forged through shifting historical and
political contexts; continued racialization, the currency of
Orientalist stereotypes and the possibility of their subversion;
the policies of institutions and their funding strategies; and
dynamic relationships with transnationalisms. The book brings a
fresh perspective that makes both an empirical and theoretical
contribution to the study of race and cultural production, whilst
critically interrogating the very notion of British Chineseness.
