摘要:以返回迁移,提出了整合和跨国之间的紧张关系,灵活性和根植性,与公民民族主义。
d immigrants are very well educated, with a majority holding Bachelor’s degrees or above. Such a high proportion also means that it is not only the principal applicant who is highly educated, but quite frequently the spouse too. As a skilled immigrant, the principal applicant tends to have been in an occupation*usually a profession*that is considered desirable for the Canadian economy. The spouses of the principal applicants are often also professionals themselves. These points are reflected in Table 1, where the top three occupations*all of a professional nature*are in natural and applied sciences, business and finance, and social science, education, government services and religion. In 2000, the landed immigrant cohort in Canada was dominated by the category ‘Professional Occupations in Natural and Applied Sciences’, which includes engineers, computer professionals and other technological and scientific occupations (Couton 2002). So, too, in Vancouver, the same category represented an overwhelming 77.3 per cent of occupations indicated by PRC skilled immigrants who landed in 2000. The most common problem is the non-recognition of foreign credentials which, although not unique to PRC immigrants, is one that is causing them particular hardship.6

In recent years, a counter-current has emerged with the return movement of PRC immigrants back to China. The following section*based on focus groups and in-depth interviews with 78 PRC skilled immigrants in Vancouver from 2001 to 2002* examines how the cultural politics of identity play out amongst PRC immigrants in Canada in light of this reverse migration. The participants had immigrated to Canada*from 1996 to 2001 inclusive*through the ‘point system’ of the skilled worker programme, and were either principal applicants or their spouses. Half were recruited through an immigration service agency and the other half through snowball sampling, with particular care taken to ensure as much diversity amongst the respondents as possible in terms of gender, year of landing, number of household members, province of origin, and occupation in China.
