关于民族国家概念的再认识

摘要

There are many views of the conception of Nation-state in the scholarly field.Under the guidance of historical materialism,we known that Nation-state is the evolution of state,it includes national,sovergign and civil Character. Western theory of Nation-state slowly through the East,but mistake happened.First,they apprehended the conception of Nation-state with literal meaning;second,they confused the Nation-state and the structure of ethnic group,the number of ethnic group cannot deny the Nation-state itself.%学术界关于民族国家概念有多种看法，从历史角度对民族国家进行溯源，得出民族国家是国家形态演化的产物，具有民族性、主权性和公民性。民族国家理论传入中国后，学术界对其概念产生误解，原因有二，第一，从字面意思上理解了民族国家，将民族国家中的民族概念与种族概念混淆，民族国家中的“民族”实际上含有国族的意思；第二，把作为国家形态的民族国家与民族国家的结构片面联系了，民族国家内部的民族数量不能否认民族国家本身。
