中越边境地区苗族回归边民研究——基于广西靖西市弄关屯的田野考察

A Study of the Returned Miao Nationality Dwelling on the Sino Vietnamese Border Area——Based on a Field Investigation about Nongguan Village of Jingxi City in Guangxi

中越边境地区的一些边民族群在历史上不断跨国迁徙,其迁徙过程包括离散和回归两个方面,其中,位于这一地区的部分苗族边民就是在这一过程中定居下来的。从离散与回归的整个过程看,中国苗族边民的离散存在着多元化的社会政治背景以及地缘、血缘、族缘等条件,其回归的历程更显复杂,除了强大的政治推力外,还有祖居国政权或其他族群的拉力。同时,当其回归以后,其处境与世代定居边境地区的其他族群相比,又有自己的特殊性。

Some ethnic groups dwelling on the Sino Vietnamese border area had historically been migrating across the country. Their migration process includes two aspects, that is diaspora and return. It was during this process that some Miao nationalities located in this area settled down. From the whole process of diaspora and return, the diaspora of Miao nationality has diversified social political background, geographic, consanguinity, kinship and other conditions. The return process of them is more complex, which is not only influenced by the powerful political force, but also influenced by the pulling force of ancestral regime or other ethnic groups. At the same time, when they returned from abroad, their situation has its own particularity compared with other ethnic groups who settled in the border from generation to generation.
