近現代華族的國際遷移無疑是全球人口遷移的重要一環。華族自1840年代末期因淘金熱的吸引而移入美國本土，迄今已逾170年，是構成今日美國多元文化社會的重要群體，對於美國的現代化與當代國力發展亦提供不可或缺的貢獻；然而，美國主體社會對於華族的移入，卻總在容忍接納和疑慮恐懼之間徘徊。本課程將探討美國華族社會由流寓至定居的發展過程與變遷，剖析華族與當地社會在不同時空中的互動模式，引導學生以小見大，更深入地理解與思考人類遷移的歷史。The international migration of the Chinese in modern times is undoubtedly an important part of global population migration. It has been more than 170 years since the Chinese immigrated to the United States due to the attraction of the gold rush in the late 1840s. They are an important group that forms the multicultural society of the United States today and have made indispensable contributions to the modernization and development of contemporary national strength in the United States; however, The main body of American society is always wavering between tolerance and acceptance and suspicion and fear regarding the immigration of Chinese people. This course will explore the development process and changes of Chinese society in the United States from exile to settlement, analyze the interaction patterns between Chinese and local society in different time and space, and guide students to see the big from the small, and to have a deeper understanding and thinking about the history of human migration.
