本文探讨了国际学生移民的现象，作为一个潜在的网站亲环境的行为变化。它利用了从在英国学习并返回中国的中国人样本中收集的定性焦点小组数据。研究结果表明，在英国生活导致了一些环保行为的外溢，但这些变化大多在返回中国后没有持续。采用从社会实践的框架，研究结果表明，“适合”与东道国的社会规范的愿望是强大的创造变化，而不需要规范的参与与可持续性。然而，研究结果还表明，如果没有支持性的社会规范，而且在母国存在有利于环境的行为障碍，短期移徙后的行为变化不会持久。本文强调了这些具体的障碍可能是在当代中国，参考文化传统的“面子”和“关系”，政府话语，不优先考虑个人机构，以及缺乏后唯物主义的价值观。
This paper explores the phenomenon of international student migration, as a potential site for pro-environmental behaviour change. It draws on qualitative focus group data collected from a sample of Chinese people who had studied in the UK and since returned to China. The findings show that living in the UK led to spillover of some pro-environmental behaviours, but most of these changes were not sustained upon return to China. Employing a framework from social practice, the findings show that the desire to ‘fit in’ with the social norms of a host country are powerful in creating change, without requiring normative engagement with sustainability. However, the findings also suggest that behavioural change will not endure after short-term migration without supportive social norms and where there are barriers to pro-environmental behaviours in the home country. The paper highlights what those specific barriers might be in contemporary China, with reference to cultural traditions of ‘mianzi’ and ‘guanxi’, government discourses which do not prioritise individual agency, and an absence of post-materialist values.
