本文探讨了中国人在英国所经历的社会排斥。它挑战了认为问题是由华人社区的文化特征造成的观点。可见其主要原因在于他们通过市场参与寻求社会融合的方式。许多中国家庭为了确保自己的市场地位，不仅与主流社会保持距离，也与自己的族群保持距离。虽然他们在这两个群体中都不是局外人，但他们在每个群体中都只有一只脚。
This article examines the social exclusion experienced by Chinese people in Britain. It challenges the view that the problem is caused by the cultural characteristics of the Chinese community. It shows that the main cause lies in their way of seeking social integration through market participation. The necessity for many Chinese families to secure their market position not only keeps them at a distance from mainstream society but also from their own ethnic community. While they are not outsiders in either of these groups, they only have one foot in each of them.
