试论瑞丽傣族的多元发展

Discussion on the diversified development of Dai nationality in Ruili

瑞丽傣族位于云南西部边陲,与缅甸掸族虽属不同的国籍,但共同的族源、文化习俗、地缘并没有因政治身份的改变而中断彼此之间的联系,在某种场景下甚至会加强。情感的趋同与利益和实惠的理性选择,使他们在族源认同和国家认同上存在张力。因此,通过发展区域特色经济,扩大教育投入、完善利益诉求机制、坚持宗教独立自办原则等方式,培养瑞丽傣族的民族认同,不仅能增强他们的民族自尊心和自豪感,而且能激发他们对自己国家的忠诚和认同,从而培育健全的政治身份意识和国家意识。

The Dai nationality in Ruili lies in the west frontier of Yunnan province. There is also another nationality, Dan of Burma in the area. Though they have different nationality, they did not interrupt contact with each other due to the change of their political identification. They have common origin of nationality, common cultural custom and terrain. They would even strengthen their exchange in some scenarios. The con- vergence of emotions and the rational choice of profit and benefit generate the tension in identification of na- tionality origin and national identification. Therefore, we should develop regional characteristic economy, in- crease education investment, perfect profit appealing mechanism, and abide by independent self - management principle of religion to cultivate national identification of Dai nationality in Ruili. This will not only enhance their national self - respect and the sense of pride, but also inspire their loyalty and identification to their own country, and therefore cultivate their perfect sense of political identification and the sense of nation.
