Abstract
Many multiethnic countries face tensions when dealing with diversity and integration in ethnic relations. China is not an exception and the debate centering around such tensions continues to emerge in ethnic policies, theoretical perspectives on ethnic relations, educational theories, and practices. The purpose of this special issue is to introduce a recent political approach that addresses these tensions in China by emphasizing the significance of forging a sense of community for the Chinese nation. Furthermore, it explores the application of this approach in the field of China’s ethnic minority education.
