The obsession and concern of local people with reputation does not come from nowhere, of course. As it happens, they live in a world where public displays of Overseas Chinese (huaqiao) reputation are ubiquitous. In the next section, I will first describe the qiaoxiang village and its particular moral geography of public reputation. Then by telling the ethnographic story of conflicts over a piece of land, I will show how reputation works as a mechanism of cooperation in a contemporary lineage village with strong overseas connections.
