具體描述

In 2004, Vanessa Fong offered a groundbreaking ethnographic exploration of the social, economic, and psychological development of children born since China's one-child policy was introduced in 1979. Her book Only Hope left readers with a picture of stressed, ambitious adolescents for whom elite status was the ultimate goal, though relatively few were in a position to achieve it.

In Paradise Redefined, Fong tracks the experiences of many in her initial cohort of Chinese only-children—now college-age—as they study abroad in Australia, Europe, Japan, New Zealand, North America, and Singapore. While earning a prestigious college education in China is the main path to elite status, study abroad provides an alternative channel by offering a particularly flexible "developed world" citizenship. This flexible citizenship promises the potential for greater happiness and freedom afforded by transnational mobility, but also brings with it unexpected suffering, ambivalence, and disappointment. Paradise Redefined offers insights into China's globalization by examining the expectations and experiences that affect how various Chinese students make decisions about studying abroad, staying abroad, immigration, and returning home.

"Vanessa Fong has made a remarkable contribution by her meticulous following of a generation of Chinese single children through their educational careers, first at home and now abroad. The impact of this generation on the world will be immense, and this is a key window on how their lives are unfolding."—Alan Smart, University of Calgary

"From Only Hope to Paradise Redefined, Fong's unique, longitudinal research offers an invaluable key to better understand the singleton generation in China who have come of age in the first decade of the 21st century, and will to a great extent determine the future of the most populous country on earth."—Yunxiang Yan, University of California, Los Angeles

"With Paradise Redefined,Vanessa Fong has produced another well-researched and innovative account.Those familiar with Only Hope will welcome this impressive transnational sequel, and a wider audience of globalization and migration scholars, educators, policy makers, and China scholars will find it a timely, authoritative, and unique source of insight into Chinese students abroad."—Nicole Constable, University of Pittsburgh

寫的不錯，觀點不敢苟同

理論介紹部分有啓發，後麵敘述的部分有點淺，沒有超齣日常觀察的深度。目前中國已經成為瞭留學生的第一大來源國，可是對student mobility的研究在中國還尚未成型。這些孤獨的留學生們漂泊在兩個迥然不同的世界之間，如同搖擺不定的天平，其實問題大都來源於對“外國”的想象與現實間的分裂，齣國留學也正是跨越與打碎神話的過程，但社會、教育與政治多重因素的扭結讓留學生的去留問題看上去更加難以抉擇。

關於filial nationalism和“外國”的討論還是挺有意思的，其他部分很難說是齣彩吧。另外時效性真的是中國研究的一大問題，這本書齣版的時候內容已經明顯過時瞭…

讀得我一把辛酸淚啊。對於作者長期追蹤的能力十分佩服，但是對於定性定量方法的結閤使用達到的實際效果持保留態度。並且對於寫作中理論的應用也不太懂。似乎隻講到瞭三種公民身份以及新自由主義背景。在後麵幾章中基本很少涉及理論瞭。
