Based on the study of Chinese community archives in the Netherlands,it is proposed that the nostalgia of the first generation of immigrants is generally rested on the surviving family archives,while the Chinese immigrants emphasize the characteristics of subjectivity,empowerment and discourse construction,which make the community archives show the trend of openness,inspiration and pluralism.Both international population movements and urban-rural people movements belong to the discussion of identity issues in the Chinese social framework and show distinctive social and cultural relations of vernacular China,therefore,the construction of Dutch Chinese community archives can be a reference for the construction of Chinese community archives.Through the analysis,the following measures can be taken to build rural community archives:to serve the revitalization of rural culture from the field of family,to serve the strengthening of national identity with the perspective of individuals,to serve the realization of archival autonomy with the method of action,and to serve the symbiotic development of archives with the purpose of unity.
