Commonality Enhancement: The Ethnic Embeddedness in Ganluo Liangshan

Abstract

Ganluo is a multi-ethnic area on the Tibet Yi Corridor. The three ethnic groups of Yi, Tibetan and Han live for hundreds of years. In the process of development, they continue to integrate, the differences gradually narrow, and the commonalities gradually increase, achieving the mutual embeddedness of space, culture, economy, society and psychology. The principle of "promoting commonality as the direction, respecting and tolerating differences" was vividly practiced, and a national community with higher recognition and stronger cohesion was built. Based on in-depth research, combined with history and reality, this paper diachronically discusses the dynamic trend of the economic, cultural and social life of the three ethnic groups in Ganluo, in order to provide theoretical and practical reference for the harmonious development of multi-ethnic areas.
