The Bai People of Southwest China

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book, based on extensive original research among the Bai people considers how majority-minority ethnic relations have evolved over time. It discusses amongst many other issues how local religions emphasise ancestor cults which reinforce minorities' sense of their separate ethnicity, and concludes by assessing how these important issues are likely to develop.
