China's development and the Chinese overseas, 1978-1994: State and diaspora in the contemporary world order

"There has been considerable debate among analysts over the condition and future of the nation state as states struggle to deal with transnational forces and meet various challenges to state autonomy at both the supranational and subnational levels. While some argue that the nation state is in decline and may soon be supplanted by different forms of organization, others argue that states will maintain their central role in the international environment. This debate has only intensified with changes evident in the post-cold war world. In Asia, the ambiguity surrounding the role of states is reflected in discussions of ""Greater China,"" an imprecisely defined entity whose relationship with existing states is unclear."
