Declining or Waning
- Historical Narratives of Early Migration:
Research focusing on early Chinese migration narratives, particularly those from the 19th and early 20th centuries, has become less frequent, possibly due to a shift towards contemporary issues and the current experiences of the diaspora. - Cultural Heritage Preservation:
Studies specifically centered on the preservation of traditional cultural practices within Chinese communities are appearing less often, as the journal's focus has increasingly turned toward modern adaptations and transnational influences. - Rural-Urban Migration Dynamics in China:
There has been a noticeable decline in articles addressing the internal migration of Chinese populations from rural to urban areas, perhaps overshadowed by the more global perspectives on the diaspora. - Chinatown Studies:
Research specifically focused on the historical and social dynamics of Chinatowns worldwide is decreasing, as broader themes of transnationalism and integration take precedence.
