A Foreign Affairs Best Book
Migration in the Time of Revolution
explores the complex relationship between China and Indonesia from 1945 to 1967, during a period when citizenship, identity, and political loyalty were in flux
. Taomo Zhou examines the experiences of migrants, including youths seeking an ancestral homeland they had never seen and economic refugees whose skills were unwelcome in a socialist state. Zhou argues that these migrants played an active role in shaping the diplomatic relations between Beijing and Jakarta, rather than being passive subjects of historical forces.
By using previously untapped documents and oral history interviews,
demonstrates how the actions and decisions of ethnic Chinese migrants were crucial in the development of postwar relations between China and Indonesia. By integrating diplomatic history with migration studies, Zhou provides a nuanced understanding of how ordinary people's lives intersected with broader political processes in Asia, offering a fresh perspective on the Cold War's social dynamics.
