Making extensive referencesto the relevant works in Chinese, Japanese, and English and subjecting their findings to both spatial linkageand horizontal contextualization, the authors argue that the study of East Asia and the Chinese overseasshould be taken beyond a rigid nation-state framework and that greater attention be directed to theimportant role of network and its interactions with the state and market in the transnational arena. Afteridentifying a "revisionist turn" in the recent literature dealing with Asian Chinese business/social networksand discussing its shortfalls, the authors contend that four key issues should be critically tackled inan effort to construct a post-revisionist synthesis: the historicity, spatiality, institutionalization, and limitationsof networks. The complex patterns of interplay between region, network, and ethnicity constitute asignificant dynamic in the evolution of East Asia and Overseas Chinese societies in the 20th century andbeyond.
