The contributors examine the role of the state in a variety of environments on China's "peripheries," paying attention to shifts in law, trade, social stratification, and cultural dialogue. They find that local communities were critical participants in the shaping of their own identities and consciousness as well as the character and behavior of the state. At certain times the state was institutionally definitive, but it could also be symbolic and contingent. They demonstrate how the imperial discourse is many-faceted, rather than a monolithic agent of cultural assimilation. 410 0$aStudies on China ;$v28. 517 3 $aCulture, ethnicity, and frontier in early modern China 606 $aEthnicity$zChina$xHistory 607 $aChina$xEthnic relations$xHistory 610 $aasia. 610 $aavars. 610 $abandits. 610 $achinese culture. 610 $achinese history. 610 $acolonialism. 610 $aconquest. 610 $adan. 610 $aempire. 610 $aethnicity. 610 $aforeign policy. 610 $afrontier. 610 $agender. 610 $aguizhou. 610 $ahainan highlands. 610 $ahan. 610 $ahistory. 610 $aimperialism. 610 $aindependence. 610 $aislam. 610 $akingdoms. 610 $akitans. 610 $amanchu. 610 $amiao. 610 $aming dynasty. 610 $aming empire. 610 $amongols. 610 $amountains. 610 $amuslim. 610 $anationalism. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apearl river. 610 $apirates. 610 $aprovinces. 610 $aqiang. 610 $aqing empire. 610 $aqing law. 610 $arace. 610 $arebellion. 610 $areligion. 610 $aresistance. 610 $asmuggling. 610 $asocial order. 610 $atusi. 610 $auyghurs. 610 $awar. 610 $awomen in history. 610 $ayao wars. 610 $ayao. 610 $ayunnan. 615 0$aEthnicity$xHistory. 676 $a305.8/00951/0903 686 $aLB 48440$2rvk 701 $aCrossley$b Pamela Kyle$0262450 701 $aSiu$b Helen F$0883132 701 $aSutton$b Donald S$0109496 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783668803321 996 $aEmpire at the margins$93860640 997 $aUNINA
