Expansive Trajectories

As Chinese state and non-state actors expand transnational engagements, contributors to this special issue explore how China’s rise is reshaping not only macro-level geopolitics but also micro-level lives around the world. Contributors shed new light on ordinary human experiences of the global China era in China itself, the Asia-Pacific region, and Europe. Foregrounding ethnographic perspectives, the authors discuss  the impacts of the People’s Republic of China state and non-state actors’ expanded global influence since the turn of the twenty-first century.
