本章在比较的背景下研究了在亚洲的苏格兰人之间的网络,重点关注种族协会在一直高度瞬息万变的环境中促进和维持外籍网络的作用。通过考察苏格兰少数民族社团的发展、活动和成员资格,本章阐明了少数民族协会如何继续提供有效的支持机制,使外籍人士的生活扎根于本地和跨国,同时也是社会资本生成的有效工具。本章借鉴了其他族裔(英国人和德国人)的例子来确定苏格兰社区的发展在多大程度上是独特的。
This chapter examines networks among Scots in Asia over time and in comparative context, focusing on the role of ethnic associations in facilitating and sustaining expatriate networks in what has always been a highly transient environment. By examining the development of Scottish ethnic societies, their activities and membership, the chapter sheds light on how ethnic associations continue to provide a potent support mechanism that roots expat life both locally and transnationally, while also being effective tools for social capital generation. The chapter draws on examples from other ethnic groups—English and Germans—to establish to what extent developments in the Scottish community were distinctive.
