Barabantseva (Chinese politics, U. of Manchester, the UK), in this revision of her dissertation (in political science, also at the U. of Manchester) offers a thought-provoking history of the ideology and policies directed at ethnic minorities, on the one hand, and overseas Chinese, on the other, in modern China. In a trenchant analysis of official documents and other media related to the central government, balanced by extensive interviews with government officials and Chinese scholars concerned with ethnic minorities, Barabantseva traces how China's nationalist agenda and eventual focus on modernization and development attain definition by the characterization of ethnic minorities as such alongside and, in contrast to, the inclusive treatment of overseas Chinese as proponents of the nationalist agenda, treating the development of these concepts in a clear, chronological narrative.
