司马迁民族大一统思想探究——以秦汉之际的民族关系为例

Exploration of Sima Qian's Nation Unity Thoughts:Take the Ethnic Relations in Qin to Han Dynasties for Instance

司马迁撰《史记》为少数民族开篇立传,以此管窥其民族大一统思想。其思想继承了前代思想家的"大一统"理论,适应了大一统帝国的政治需求,是先秦及秦汉时期民族之间交流及其政治举措促进的结果。司马迁的民族观被后代史学家所沿袭,亦可看成当今国家处理民族关系的理论源泉。

The biography for minorities was unprecedented except the Shiji written by Sima Qian which de‐picted his view of national unity .The thoughts were generated from the“Unity”of pre-Qin Dynasty and were adapted to the political needs of the united empire .It was a result of the communication between pre‐Qin and Qin and Han dynasty as well as the political promotion of the Qin and Han dynasty .Sima Qian＇s thoughts of national unity has been followed by the historians of the later generations which can also be re‐garded as the academic source for different countries to deal with national relations .
