Abstract
The article is devoted to the evolution of Chinese immigration to the United States in the past and present. The internal and external factors of the first mass wave of Chinese immigration are defined, the author’s periodization of Chinese immigration to the United States is proposed taking into account social, political and economic factors. The features of Chinese immigration in different periods of time are revealed. On the one hand, the features of the anti-Chinese movement in the United States, on the other hand, the formation of Chinese quarters (Chinatowns) as a response to rejection in the new socio-cultural conditions are revealed. The contribution of Chinese immigrants to the development of the United States is shown, with special attention paid to the role of the Chinese diaspora in the economy, in the development of infrastructure, entrepreneurship and high technology. The modern Chinese diaspora in the United States is characterized, and the features of modern Chinese immigration at the expense of highly qualified specialists and students as a consequence of the Immigration Act of 1990 are considered.
