Prepared for delivery at the 2006 Annual Meeting of the American Political Science Association, August 31 - September 3, 2006, Philadelphia. An earlier version of the paper was presented at Branching Our the Banyan Tree: The 2005 Chinese American Studies Conference, San Francisco, Oct. 6-9. Copyrighted by the American Political Science Association, 2006. Abstract: This research project seeks to understand the scope and sources of ethnic and other political identities among U.S. residents of Chinese descent whose families originated from the Chinese mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and elsewhere in Asia. In what ways, to which extent, and why do Chinese Americans from various homeland origins identify themselves politically in the United States? Informed by past research on ethnic identity formation and political transnationalism, this research analyzes a large-scale public opinion survey of Chinese in Southern California to report the contours and sources of political identities and their relationship to homeland origins, transnational ties, and adaptation experiences in the Unites States, while controlling for the influence of sociodemographic factors. By measuring homeland influence with socialization context and by distinguishing among various socialization contexts and types of transnational practices, the findings provide important modification to the scholarship on immigrant assimilation and transnationalism.
