This article is from the project of Taiwan Hakka Culture Development Center, Hakka Affairs Council. While we executed the plan, we found some questions such like How to define Hakka? How to extend the Hakka studies from the perspective of global history? Any of the above questions is hard to answer because every culture is composed of multi-elements. Cultural analysis must be researched through a long period of time, multi-oriented, and holistic perspective. But being in pace with the execution of the project, we find more information that could provide the solution. In conclusion, this article suggested that (1) in every case study, researchers must understand the object of the study, (2) the method of comparative historical research could be a better way to the Hakka studies from the perspective of global history, (3) collecting the life history of overseas Hakkas is the most impartment work in current Hakka studies.
