"The essays collected in this volume are a welcome contribution, especially to the almost non-existing literature on Chinese migration to certain regions of Central Asia and Eastern Europe, and therefore provide a valuable starting point for students of migration and area studies." - Martina Bofulin, University of Ljubljana; Pacific Affairs 2013.
