中国国家发展中的边疆整合

Border Integration in National Development of China

边疆整合是通过国家整合力量来维护和巩固边疆以及增进边疆与内地间的整体性和一体化的过程。历史上王朝国家主要采取松散性和间接式的机制来维系"核心—边缘"的疆域格局。这种机制使得边疆整合程度较低,边疆形态具有了突出的异质性和碎片化特征。随着近代以后民族国家的构建,中国逐步形成了一个与主权体制、中华民族建设和统一性制度体系相适应的边疆类型。边疆架构总体上实现了由碎片化向整体性的转变,但从具体层面来看,这种转型并不彻底。在民族国家建设和现代化进程全面展开的背景下,中国仍然面临着认同整合、社会整合、法治整合、族际整合和发展整合等多个维度的边疆整合问题。

Border integration is a process to maintain and strengthen border and promote the integration and unification between border area and inland through integration of national powers.In history,dynasty nations mainly maintained border structure of ＂core-margin＂ through incompact and indirect mechanism.This mechanism made the border integration quite low,and border formation displayed prominent heterogeneity and fragments.With the establishment of ethnic nation since modern time,China gradually developed border type compatible with sovereignty system,construction of Chinese nation and unifying system.In general,border framework has realized the transformation from fragmentation to integration.However,specifically,this transformation is not thorough.Under the background of the construction of ethnic nation and overall implementation of modernization process,China still confronts border integration problems of various dimensions such as identity integration,social integration,legislature integration,inter-ethnic integration and development integration.
