论唐代和亲视域下的文化认同与国家认同

On Cultural Recognition and National Recognition from the Perspectives of Interethnic Marriage of the Tang Dynasty

和亲政策是唐王朝治理边疆的一项重要举措,在其影响之下,边疆民族与唐朝统治下的中原汉族形成了双向的文化认同,且边疆民族对唐王朝的国家认同也在逐渐加深。两种认同受到历史条件的影响,既存在统一又相互矛盾,存在着明显的局限性。文化认同和国家认同淡化了民族间的差异与隔阂,推动了民族同化;加速了民族间的交往与联系,增进了民族情感;促进了边疆地区经济文化教育的发展,在中华民族多元一体格局的形成过程中发挥着极其重要的作用。

The interethnic marriage policy was an important measure for the Tang Dynasty govern- ment to rule frontiers. Under the impact, the ethnicities of frontiers and the Han people in Central China formed bilateral cultural recognition or acceptance, and the former showed a better acceptance of the nationhood of the Tang Empire. It is argued that both types of acceptance had striking limitations and conflicts but were unified at the same time. Cultural recognition and nationhood recognition diluted interethnic discrepancies and promoted eth- nic assimilation; besides, they contributed to interethnic exchange and economic, cultural and educational development in frontiers.
