It argues that Chinese ideology on minority nationalities is rooted in modern China's quest for national integration and political authority. However, it also highlights the fact that the complex process of conceptualizing, investigating, classifying, curating, and writing minority history has been fraught with disputes and contradictions. As such, the book offers a timely contribution to the current debate in the fields of twentieth-century Chinese nationalism, minority policy, and anthropological practice.New Directions in East Asian History,2522-0195EthnologyWorld politicsChina—HistoryHistory, ModernSociologyIntellectual life—HistoryEthnologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12070Political Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911080History of Chinahttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/715010Modern Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/713000Knowledge - Discoursehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22120Intellectual Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/729000Ethnology.World politics.China—History.History, Modern.Sociology.Intellectual life—History.Ethnology.Political History.History of China.Modern History.Knowledge - Discourse.Intellectual Studies.951.004Wu Guoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1224874BOOK9910484547403321Narrating Southern Chinese Minority Nationalities2844056UNINA
