摘要
随着外商在华投资领域的不断扩大和外国人管理制度的日益完善,在华外国人的人口结构与就业模式也不断变化。以在华日本人为例,过去来华者以日资公司派遣职员为主,近年来出现了嵌入族裔经济区的日本人本地创业现象,这是一个新的趋势。文章从经济地理学的嵌入理论视角出发,将族裔创业视为一种嵌入本地社会关系网络中的经济活动,通过对广州10位日本创业者的深度访谈,运用质性研究方法,探讨了在穗日本人的创业过程和嵌入路径。研究表明,在穗日本人的创业先后经历了脱嵌、补充嵌入、延展嵌入、核心嵌入、转换五个阶段,完成了族裔创业者社会网络在本地的重构。在此过程中,创业者社会网络的本地嵌入呈现出关系强度增强、网络结构紧密以及地理根植的特征。
With the continuous expansion of foreign investment in China and the improvement of management system for foreigners,the population structure and employment mode of transmigrants in China have also changed.Taking Japanese as an example,previously most of the Japanese in China are dispatched employees from Japanese enterprises.In recent years,there has been a phenomenon of Japanese local entrepreneurship embedded in the ethnic enclave,which becomes a new trend.From the perspective of embeddedness theory in economic geography,ethnic entrepreneurship can be regarded as an economic activity embedded in local social network.Through in-depth interviews with 10 Japanese entrepreneurs in Guangzhou,this paper uses qualitative research methods to explore the entrepreneurial process and embedding path of Japanese transmigrants in Guangzhou.It is found that the entrepreneurship of Japanese transmigrants in Guangzhou has gone through five stages,namely,de-embedding,supplementary embedding,extended embedding,core embedding and transformation,which completes the local reconstruction of social network of ethnic entrepreneurs.In this process,the local embeddedness of entrepreneurs’social network shows the characteristics of stronger relationship,tighter structure and deeper local embeddedness.This paper reveals the dynamic process of ethnic entrepreneurship of foreigners in China,which to some extent makes up for the lack of existing relevant research,and also provides beneficial policy support for the construction of entrepreneurship and business environment in Chinese big cities.
