摘要
有学者认为,由于“族群”是由血统、遗传决定的,不能自由地选择,而"文化"是可以选择与改变的,因而,族群的自我认同与族属的客观标示之间往往存在着某些层面上的矛盾与冲突。本文试图以苗人居住相对集中的广西融水县红水乡为例,讨论虽然人们在认同现有族属的同时,也在追溯其久远历史记忆中祖先的渊源。但是,在特定的社会历史境遇下,族群认同感往往是随着社会生存环境的改变而改变的,族群认同和文化认同的边界往往具有可变性,而不是不能自由选择的。因此,族群主观认同与客观标示是可以兼容并包的。
Contents： It is argued that ＂ethnic group＂ is blood -bonded, and based on genetic factors. It is ascribed, while ＂culture＂ is optional and alterable. Therefore, there are contradictions and conflicts between self- ethnic identity and ethnic labels. This paper, however, suggests that in a giving social and historical context, the sense of ethnic identity may change with the changes of social contexts and living conditions. The boundary between ethnic identity and cultural identity may be of changeability, and self - ethnic identity and objective ethnic labels can be compatible.
