In the era of globalization, the human improve the mutual dependency, significant impact on the country’s immigration movement. Global migration patterns and trends is undergoing great changes. Emigration flow began to present a regression and cycle characteristics. China’s overseas emigrants has a long history, Since the implementation of the reform and opening up, the contemporary overseas emigrants began, As a new generation of international migration under the background of reform and opening up, as well as the participation and the driving force of China’s economic transformation, overseas return migrants, as "secondary migration" has not yet been fully explored. Migration reflow process is not only the personal behavior, and has intrinsic motivation, but also a sovereign country especially from a screening, empowerment and management process, has the intrinsic mechanism of national behavior. Empowerment and management mechanism of the country is only to adapt to the individual behavior mechanism of immigrants can better promote migrants continue to flow healthy. Both on the theoretical and practical level. It is very important and necessary to explore the law of behavior and the mechanism of action of overseas return emigrants.In this paper, based on detailed survey data, adopted the combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, focus on the behavior of migration return decision-making process and return after spatial distribution pattern and its formation mechanism. The mainly outflow and return agglomeration of new emigrants of Zhejiang as an example, we analysis return behavior pattern based on differences in identity from two aspects of macroscopic and microcosmic in mainland China in the new emigrants in international migration return behavior mode and explore its willingness to return, return motivation, location choice, and returning pattern.At the same time, the method of spatial analysis is introduced to analyze the spatial agglomeration pattern and the related influence mechanism of the return flow of the new emigrants from overseas. Finally, based on existing international migrants returning theory research and discuss on China’s overseas return migration behavior.Discusses the explanation of China’s overseas emigrants behavior and applicability, and puts forward some countermeasures and suggestions on China’s domestic immigration policy.In logical order this text can be divided into four parts:The first part mainly elaborated this article research significance systematically. Combed the thread of the theoretical foundation and related research of the study in recent years. Related content is mainly concentrated in the chapter 1, the chapter 2.The second part mainly analyzed the three phases of overseas emigrants returning behavior:motivation, selection and location systematically and pay attention to influence strength of individual and family factors in returning of decision making, interrelated return behavior decision-making process and its influencing factors in-depth, as well as discussing the practicability of the localization research of the western return migration theory in China, Related content is mainly concentrated in the chapter 4, the chapter 5, the chapter 6 and the chapter 7.The third part, this chapter is mainly to explore the spatial distribution pattern and its formation mechanism from the angle of the group and based on the perspective of spatial analysis. From the perspective of development and utilization of resources, we analyzed influence on the mechanism of spatial agglomeration.From the angle of spatial, we discuss the relationship between emigrants and the economic development of home country based on structuralism theory and formatted the policy implications of integrated utilization of resources.The fourth part is the summary of the full text.This chapter mainly summarized the conclusion of this research, discussed the practicability and explanation of the western theory to our country and puts forward related Suggestions for migration policy in our country.Based on the above elaboration, we can mainly get the following conclusion:1、The new immigrants from overseas show typical individual and family characteristics.Though analyzing the individual and family characteristics of the returning emigrants we can find that the overseas return migrants overall showed positively selective. However, the regime and policy guidance strengthened the stratification of returning population, promoted the human capital advantage of the entire group at the same time; Transnational migration expand the migrants families spatial pattern, changes in the migration direction and the returning subject produces different kinds of transnational families, the returning probability of the pure return family, multinational/returning family and abroad family is reduce in turn. Transnational family types contribute to predict the returning behavior.2、The willingness of overseas returnees to return is the result of the common impact of micro individual, family and macro external environment..the influence is 76.8% and 23.2% respectively. The micro factors influence is more significant, under the influence of the external regime environment; the subject of the decision-making is still man and family.meanwhile, the substitution effect and income effect produced by the immigration network melts the role of the individual differences in returning. Contributed the transformation of returning mode and the refactoring of transnational migration practice.3、The reasons for the return of the overseas are different due to the difference of age, occupation type, status and age. from the differences of the era, the number of new overseas emigrants is increasing, all return motivation is diversified; Investment, innovation, entrepreneurship and transnational business are become the new normalization motivation of the emigrants; short visit, tourism exchanges and learning are becoming the new reason to return in the quest for the emigrants; from the view of the different identity, the differences of return reason between the overseas Chinese is relatively minor, occupation development (investment and work) is the main motive of the new emigrants. Students returning from overseas, settle and occupation development are the two main reasons, and the two return motivations are usually accompanied by the line; Students returning from overseas is usually accompanied by different return factors; work and investment occupation development motivation by identity, individual characters such as age have more impact; The influence of learning type is the education degree, whether the family is in the same area and so on, this is a large part is children who return home to follow their parents; Return for family reasons, family factors (family area, father’s age and foreign family number, etc.) Significant affect on return.4、The location selection of returning is the integrated balance decision on the individual, family, return motivation and location feature. With the progressive of returning decision-making and the propel of the returning behavior, the influence of family was gradually weaken and the effects of individual characteristics are still strong. Returning motivation, the location feature and individual characteristics far from plays a more important role in returning decision-making.5、 The spatial displacement and the purpose of pointing to the common construction of different ways of returning overseas new emigrants."two-way transnational cycle migration"’become the main circumfluence practice mode of the new overseas Chinese."the mutational circulation"model needs to be more empirical research; "Long time retunvand "one-way end return mode"’become the main choice of new returned overseas Chinese and the short-term study abroad emigrants respectively. From the capital investment to the intellectual investment, the flexible returning of elite is becoming trend; But China is not the destination6、the new emigrants returning presented significant regional concentration and the characteristics of spatial directivity. The same as emigrant ion, the returning presents obvious characteristics of regional concentration, returning destination and origin is not completely consistent, under the premise of "adjacent first "principle, the returning population are flowing across the province to the city agglomeration with domestic migrants. The different returning subject also preset the different spatial directivity. High-tech business Incubator Park, students and colleges and universities and research institutes is the main platform of new migrants to start up business. Overseas high-end scientific research personnel flow to the colleges and universities, state research institutes, enterprises research and development center; Returned overseas Chinese are more choose to return home to work and settle down; While students are mainly concentrated in students pioneering park.7、Hometown love, industrial agglomeration effect and policy guidance as the Common mechanism affect the spatial agglomeration. Yangtze River delta region, including Zhejiang, become the main resource abroad circumfluence migrants to gather. Overseas Chinese relatives attracted overseas migrants to return, while the policies of industrial agglomeration effect and talent policy promote the spatial agglomeration and strengthened the migration activity. Foreign direct investment in the Yangtze river delta region Predominantly overseas Chinese has significant characteristics of spatial agglomeration, talent agglomeration and industry cluster formation interaction promotes the formation of the spatial distribution pattern of emigration resources. At the same time, the development of integration of Yangtze River delta and the similarity of urban industry and talent policy, strengthen the competition effect for migrant’s resources abroad, to Enhances the space migration activity in the area of the Yangtze River delta. Therefore the government not only need to consider the industry’s turning period in promoting overseas high-quality resources, but also on the basis of the flow characteristics of overseas return migration across the land space, attaches great importance to the attention to the inter-regional cooperation of overseas work.The contribution of this study is as follows:1、research perspective and research content has been expanded. Based on the characteristics of the return of mainland China’s overseas emigrants. From the Angle of the lateral historicism, through the whole interpretation of the western theories on China’s overseas returning migrants behavior, By applying the returning theory of international migrants to Chinese empirical validation decomposition to the different stages of the decision-making behavior, applying to returning decision at some stage or a certain part of the group. The expansion of research content is mainly reflected in:in analyzing the return decision and model, in accordance with the overseas returnees’ different identities, the specific operation for overseas Chinese, overseas Chinese and overseas students who have returned home were analyzed respectively, the difference in return pattern among the different identity and the influence factors, in analyzing the spatial of Overseas return migrant resource, it was distributed into human resources and financial resources, the use of visual way to express the different resources spatial distribution in agglomeration and characteristics of the model, the motivation and formation mechanism of different return migration resources are explored deeply2、This paper explores to establish the overall analysis framework on the return mode of the new overseas emigrants. The whole process of returning decision making of overseas Chinese emigrants:willingness, motivation, choice of location and return pattern are incorporated into the analysis framework of return mode, This article interpreted the decision-making process of migration behavior systematically; the individual and family micro factors and macro variables in returning decision-making system of environment influence can be decomposed step by step, at the same time, we combined return decision-making process of dynamic individuals with static population distribution pattern, which helps to form the returning decision-making model of overseas migrants in standardized research paradigm.3、In the study of the return mode of the emigrants, The spatial analysis method was introduced and the combination of the quantitative,qualitative and spatial analysis methods was strengthened. In the analysis method, the research method of the new emigration return model was adopted, and the multiple regression model and logistic regression model were used. By introducing into the angle of spatial view, we combined the space of the geographical view of quantitative analysis method with the sociology Angle of view of structuralism theory. With the radiation effect of industrial cluster as a starting point, analyzing the regime and policy factors, which contribute to interpret, ate the relation between overseas and economic development of home country in depth. Providing more accurate policy point for countries to attract overseas migrants and integration resources, in order to avoid the eye candy of migrant policy and become a mere formality.
