从教门到民族：西南边地一个少数社群的民族史
Ma Xuefeng
This book explores the trajectory of Chinese population classification in the context of recent "revolution" and "Nationalism" by examining a certain aspect of the modern history of a minority community in southwest China. The introduction of modern nationalism, in the context of modern China, has strengthened the racial aspect of traditional Chinese population classification. The ideological circle tends to understand the nation and nationalism in an ethnic way. The ethnic understanding of the nation has brought about the political construction of communities. From the Ming Dynasty to the mid-19th century, Muslims as a group were mostly not mentioned in official history. In the classification of relevant groups of people in Yunnan local chronicles, Muslims are mostly "regarded as Han Chinese". However, in the mid-19th century, with the occurrence of a series of conflict events, this group was rediscovered, and then, in the context of modern Chinese revolution and nationalism, was "recognized" as an "imagined community."
