主持人:我们今天使用的现代意义的民族这个概念,其实是从西方传来的,西方使用它也就是三百年左右的历史。现在我们常就民族的内涵与定义进行争论,还常就民族与国家的关系进行研究,那么在当代的西方,民族是什么意思?民族与国家是什么关系呢?其内涵与我们所主张的是否相同呢?今天我们就请在美国克莱姆森大学任教的人类学教授张燕华老师谈谈这个问题。
Moderator: Today we use the concept of a modern sense of the nation is actually coming from the West, the West to use it is about three hundred years of history. Now we often debate the connotation and definition of the nation. We often study the relationship between the nation and the state. What is the meaning of the nation in the contemporary West? And what is the relationship between the nation and the state? The connotation is the same with what we claim The same? Today we asked Zhang Yanhua, an anthropology professor who taught at the Clemson University in the United States, to talk about this issue.
