This study points up the complex and intricate interplay of ethnic
and national identities in the lives of Chinese in Britain. A
constant thread across two hundred years of Chinese presence has
been the vigour of British national identity among migrants'
descendants. This study argues that transnational studies reinforce
essentialist conceptions of identity and of cultural authenticity
in diasporic communities, and thus frustrate the promotion of
ethnic co-existence and social cohesion in multi-ethnic societies.
