They are very diverse, and the degree of modernisation among them varies greatly. This book examines the current state of China's ethnic minorities at a time when ethnic affairs and globalisation are key forces affecting the contemporary world. It considers the fields of policy, economy, society and international relations, including the impact of globalisation and outside influences.MinoritiesChinaChinaEthnic relationsPolitical aspectsMinorities305.8/00951Mackerras Colin256972MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819009903321China's ethnic minorities and globalisation3971869UNINA
