Negotiating identity by transnational Chinese students during COVID-19.
For some years now, there has been an increase in the number of Chinese students travelling abroad to pursue higher education. The outbreak of COVID-19 has created new challenges for international students around the world. Based on an analysis of online forums during the pandemic (January-July 2020), we focus on the challenges Chinese transnational students have been facing. From the state's point of view, being at the front of China's internationalization progress, the students are expected to have both a 'vision of globalization' () as well as a deep 'Chinese feeling' (). However, in practice during the pandemic, the students found it extremely difficult to achieve a balance between their multiple identities. In this article, we argue that discrepancies between the students' identities may be due to the pandemic having highlighted several existing conflicts that have so far received only meagre attention or were even overlooked.
