Exploring how people negotiate and reconcile construct and re-construct their distinctive
gender and ethnic identities in a cross-cultural context Hu examines what happens when two
distinct cultures meet at the intimate interface of marriage and family. Chinese-British
Intermarriage reveals how gender and ethnic identities intersect in distinctive ways in shaping
the lived experiences of intermarried couples. Through the kaleidoscope of first-generation
Chinese-British inter-ethnic families in the UK the book brings together family gender
migration and ethnic studies reflecting on ongoing social processes such as individualisation
and globalisation.
