The Sociological Study of Migration and Settlement Process of Chinese Transmigrants : Through their Research in Japan and North-Eastern district of China

在本研究中，我们探索了以下几点。1)虽然在20世纪80年代，中国移民主要是以在校学生或外国学生的身份进入中国，但最近他们以日本配偶、实习生和IT工程师的身份进入。此外，在日本的中国居民中已有20%拥有永久居留权。这表明他们打算在日本定居，他们有在自己的祖国投资的可能性。2)通过我们在辽宁的采访了解到，作为实习生的中国移民受到了在大连和沈阳等日本公司的投资的影响。同时，为了应对对具有日语能力和IT技能的IT工程师的强烈需求，形成了派遣临时工的制度。(3)吉林延边地区有韩国工作经历的朝鲜族移民，由于与亲属的关系，他们的离开被认为是相对容易的。(80%的举报人在韩国有亲戚)。然而，他们移民到韩国对地区经济产生了影响，也给他们留下的家庭带来了问题。4)在黑龙江F县进行调查，F县是流亡日本战争孤儿和日本妇女的故乡之一。虽然他们回国了，但他们之间的关系仍然存在并植根于这一地区，可见留在国内的人与在日本的移民之间已经完成了跨国社会共同体。中国移民的迁徙和定居是打开他们视野的因素之一，并解释说，日本和中国之间已经形成了社会基础设施。他们的社会关系促进了他们继续迁徙。

In this study, we explored the following points. 1) Although in 1980s, Chinese immigrants mainly entered as school-attending students or foreign students, recently they have been coming as Japanese spouses, trainees, and IT engineers. Also 20% of Chinese residents in Japan already have permanent residential status. It is shown that they intend to settle in Japan, and they have the possibility of investing in their homeland. 2) We learned through our interviews in Liaoning, Chinese immigrants to Japan as trainees have been influenced by investments in Japanese companies of Dalian and Shenyang. Simultaneously, in order to respond the strong demand for IT engineers who have Japanese language ability and IT skills, the system of sending temporary workers has been formed. 3) Korean Chinese transmigrants in the Jilin Yanbian District who had work experiences in South Korea, Their departures were considered to be comparatively easy by relationship with their relatives. (80% of informants have relatives in South Korea). However, their migration to South Korea has had influences on the regional economy and problems with their families that they have left behind. 4) In Heilongjiang, we conducted the research at F prefecture which is one of the hometown regions of displaced Japanese war orphans and Japanese women. Although they went back, relationship remains and embedded in this area it can be seen that between those who remain people in homeland, and the immigrants in Japan have completed transnational social community. Migration and settlement of the Chinese transmigrants are one factor which opens their eyes to Japanese society on the homeland, and it was explained that the social infrastructure has been formed between Japan and China. Their social ties have facilitated to continue their migration.
