This much-needed volume explains who ethnic minorities are and how
well do they do in China. In addition to offering general
information about ethnic minority groups in China, it discusses
some important issues around ethnicity, including ethnic
inequality, minority rights, and multiculturalism. In doing so, it
explores questions such as: How are ethnic minorities represented
in China? Are ethnic minorities' gender norms different from those
of Han Chinese? How serious is ethnic inequality in education and
income? How well are minority cultures and languages preserved in
China? Are ethnic minorities marginalized amid China's rapid
economic growth? In what ways do China's ethnic policy affect its
foreign policy and international relations? The handbook reviews
research on major ethnic issues in China and addresses some key
conceptual, theoretical and methodological issues in the study of
ethnicity in China. It offers updated research findings on minority
ethnicity, consolidates knowledge scattered in different
disciplines in the existing literature and provides readers with a
multi-disciplinary and multi-faceted coverage in one single
volume.Drawing on insights and perspectives from scholars in
different continents the contributions provide critical reflections
on where the field has been and where it is going, offering readers
possible directions for future research on minority ethnicity in
China. The Handbook on Ethnic Minorities in China is an up-to-date,
comprehensive, and convenient reference, ideal for teaching and
research on ethnic minorities in China. Contributors include: M.
