在本研究中，我将重点放在20世纪初福建省沿海地区，那里的私营部门与外国的文化交流非常发达，我研究了由移民到东南亚或接受基督教所引发的社会或文化变化。为了完成这项研究，我在中国福建省的古田县和莆田县进行了实地考察。此外，我还访问了马来西亚东部的沙捞越，采访了一些中国老人。

In this research, Focusing on the costal area of Fujian province in the early twentieth century where cultural exchanges with foreign countries by the private sector were well developed, I have studied social or cultural changes which were originated by Emigration to South East Asia or acceptance of Christianity.In order to accomplish this study, I carried out field works at Gutian county and Putian county in Fujian province China where many emigrants occurred. Furthermore I also visited to Sarawak on east Malaysia and conducted interviews with elderly Chinese people.
