Chinese migration has accelerated over the past 15 years, with new establishments on all continents. It brings social promotion, on a parallel labor market controlled by fellow-nationals. When employment dropped because of the economic crisis, these migrants moved towards more precarious markets or towards international construction markets. Many of them also trade new Chinese commodities made for export.
