泰国是东南亚国家中拥有华人较多的国家,华人约占总人口的14%。泰国当地约1/3的大型企业是华人创办的,目前华商企业总市值高达500亿美元,因此华商在泰国经济中扮演着重要角色。华人世界中有一种特殊的“关系”文化,而本文则是将关系文化放大至社会关系网络,并以此来探讨目前华商在泰国从事的经济活动以及生活现况。社会关系网络是一种资源,故本文主要探讨华商企业在泰国投资的进入战略选择,以及如何应用华人特有的关系文化来壮大自己。在研究方法上是以定性方式为主,结合文献探讨和访谈,对在泰国设厂投资的华商进行调研。研究结果发现,随着历史的发展和成员的多样性增加,华侨社会关系网络呈现出复杂化的倾向,俨然已成为族缘、地缘、婚缘及侨团的混合形态。但不论如何,泰国华商甚至华人华侨间仍保持着频繁的文化交流和经贸合作。这不仅显示了海外华人间的互动互助关系,也意味着华商网络正从狭隘的族裔经济向文化关系、跨国族群关系转化。
