　　“Southwest”has a variety of meanings in different contexts.Its original and fundamental meaning refers to geographical location，denoting China’ S Southwest，even though itS borders are uncertain and even ambiguous.On this basis，othcr meanings of t11e term are derived.Firsdy，it js the Southwest in terms of t}le geographv of culnares or ethnic groups.Earlv in the Western Han Dynasty，the term“Southwest barbarian”-a concept encompassing ethnic groups within a certain geographical area-generally referred to ethnic groups in the WeSt and Soutll，including Yunnan province，Western Guizhou，Sichuan and southern Gansu.In 1930，Mr.Liang Zhaotao mapped out“The Distribution and Classification Sketch Map of Ethnic groups in the Southwest”to clarify the boundaries of the Southwest region.It included the territories which at that time encompassed Yunnan，Sichuan， Xikang，Tibet，Guangxi，western Hunan，Hainan Island in Guangdong， Yushu in Qinghai，Gannan in Gansu and Other places.It could be taken as giving a generalized pragmatic idea of how the ethnic groups were visualized geographically.In comparison，Professor Emeritus Fang Guoyu used a much narrower concept of what delimits the Southwest area.referring to “that which iS now Yunnan province.the region SOUth of the Dadu River in Sichuan Province and west of Guiyang in Guizhou Province".

章節(jié)摘錄

　　Considering the diversity of ethnic groups and cultures， and the fact of a harmonious coexistence of peoples and cultures within Yunnan， Mr. Wu Xiongwu pointed out that our experience tells that "harmonious existence" lies in tolerance-tolerance to diversity and to ethnic difference-and the cause of tolerance lies in "the peoples cannot help but be tolerant under common natural and historical conditions， or at some time choose to be tolerant out of their ethos". As many theorists believe， an ethnic group is established on the basis of an interior identity which at the same time indicates difference and external exclusion， so nationalism indicates an identity and unity at home but exclusion and conflict towards the outside. But the history and experience of ethnic groups in Yunnan engenders another train of thought： it is possible both to have interior unity or identity as well as external tolerance. In history， while maintaining their own cultural traditions， Yunnan s ethnic groups could be tolerant towards other cultures and， as a result， a great diversity of cultures could coexist in this piece of territory， Yunnan　In other words， ethnic groups with different cultural traditions could coexist in Yunnan over an extended period of time. This sentiment is consistent with Mr. Fei Xiaotongs "pattern of multiple unification" and "cultural consciousness". Tolerance， as a capability and action respecting others beliefs and behaviors， is taken by Mr. Wu Xiongwu as a necessity and a choice. In that case， where is the cultural root for tolerance？ It lies in the structure of thought and the conceptual model of "multi-unification" in many of Yunnans ethnic groups. On the one hand， the model of "multi-unification"-a unique way for knowing the world and dealing with internal relations-has been established in the natural conditions and historical processes of Yunnan; on the other hand， this model has become a fundamental form for dealing with relations between people and across cultures in the course of cultural consciousness.
