Interviews on the Zhongguo Exhibition: Chinese Diaspora Memory in Spain, 2024

Entrevistas exposición Zhongguo is a case study within the R&D project 'Memory, Forgetting and Crossing Borders in East Asia' directed by Prof. David Mervart and Taciana Fisac. The dataset contains two semi-structured interviews conducted in May 2024 with participants involved in organizing the 'Zhongguo: el País del Centro' exhibition at the National Museum of Anthropology. The study aims to analyze the contribution of descendants of Chinese immigrants in Spain to the construction of the historical memory of the Chinese community.
