Where are the Miao? -- Miao rebels and 'common ground' -- Multiple meanings of the Miao -- The rituals of New Year -- Authority and the local -- Conflict at the Temple of the Celestial Kings -- Conclusions

Focusing on a rural area of south China, Rack shows how so-called ethnic minority cultural events have become occasions for the exploration of personal identity by urban elites. She suggests that, historically, ethnic classifications were drawn up as a result of elite concern to demonstrate the existence of a contrasting homogeneous and superior civilization.
