Networks ranging from village level to transnational level have
always played a crucial role in Chinese society. The contributors
to this volume aim to trace the interaction between various
networks which have existed from the 19th century to the present
day. The articles deal with theoretical concepts, historical
examples, such as non-state responses to the North China Famine
(1876 - 1879), the role of missionaries in the modernization of
China and disaster management, including recent inter-ethnic
business competition in Hong Kong, Han settlers in Xinjiang, temple
festivals in Macau and urban migrants' social networks in today's
China. By drawing on new material and theoretical frameworks, these
studies shed fresh light on the ways in which various forms of
networks have shaped Chinese society, while at the same time
questioning traditional and rigid perspectives of Chinese society
based solely on networks and guanxi.
