「承蒙」，是客家人說謝謝、表示感激、誠心致意的幾種方式之一。本書以承蒙為標題，所表達的是客家族群對臺灣社會的謝意，因為，後者充沛地滋養了客家文化。展示臺灣客家文化，事實上就是試圖呈現客家文化和社會人群互動的成果，客家文化如是豐富，當係承蒙廣體臺灣長期又細膩的滋潤給養。從另外一個方面來看，客家人群作為臺灣社會的重要組成，其文化實作，特別是與周邊人群的互動往來，一起建構了島嶼國度的人文歷史特色。因此，客家臺灣、臺灣客家、客家臺灣文化及臺灣客家文化等的創詞，其意義格外深遠。 展示，作為介紹客家與臺灣的一種方式，期許如其所如的從臺灣認識客家、從客家認識臺灣。客家的源起，以及客家與臺灣相互建構過程的歷史，容或有多種解釋，我們認為，應本於學術研究的基礎，如其所如的展示。

"This volume explores the diverse linguistic landscape of Southeast Asia's Chinese communities. Based on archival research and previously unpublished linguistic fieldwork, it unearths a wide variety of language histories, linguistic practices, and trajectories of words. The localized and often marginalized voices we bring to the spotlight are quickly disappearing in the wake of standardization and homogenization, yet they tell a story that is uniquely Southeast Asian in its rich hybridity. Our comparative scope and focus on language, analysed in tandem with history and culture, adds a refreshing dimension to the broader field of Sino-Southeast Asian Studies"--
In Global Hakka: Hakka Identity in the Remaking Jessieca Leo offers a needed update on Hakka history and a reassessment of Hakka identity in the global and transnational contexts. Leo gives fresh insights into concepts such as ethnicity, identity, Han, Chineseness, overseas Chinese, and migration in relation to Hakka identity. Globalization, transnationalism, deterritorialization and migration drive the rapid transformation and reformation of Hakka identity to the point of no return. Dehakkalization through cultural adaptation or genetic transfer has created an elastic identity in the global Hakka and different kinds of Hakka communities around the world. Jessieca Leo convincingly shows that the concept of ‘being Hakka’ in the twenty-first century is better referred to as Hakkaness – a quality determined by lifestyle and personal choices. "Among the Chinese, tradition long resisted the idea of migration. In practice, however, there were many layers of adaptation to different circumstances. The Hakka have been exceptional in having always been conscious of their migratory successes. This book explores with great sensitivity how Hakka history outside China influences the way they respond to the new global environment. Combining careful scholarship with self-discovery, Jessieca Leo captures the processes by which one group of Chinese became migrants who consider migration as normal. Her fascinating and original work takes the study of the Hakka to a higher level and offers fresh insights for understanding how other migratory Chinese are transforming tradition today."

This book focuses on International migration among the Chinese long before European colonists set foot on the Asian continent. Long before European colonists set foot on the Asian continent, the Chinese moved across sea and land, seasonally or permanently, to other parts of Asia and the rest of the world to pursue economic opportunities and alternative means of livelihood. This volume addresses the new Chinese diasporas around the world, offering a snapshot of the cosmopolitan and shifting nature of Chinese population dynamics from the perspectives of anthropologists, sociologists, and scholars of international studies.
