Racial nationalism

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Racial nationalism is an ideology that advocates a

racial purity" of a nation through policies such as banning race mixing and the immigration of other races. In order to create a justification for such policies, racial nationalism often promotes eugenics, and advocates political and legislative solutions based on eugenic and other racial theories.[1]

民族 similar to the German word Volk.[5][6][7][8]

By country

China

Chinese nationalism (中国民族主义 or 中华民族主义) claimed by the Chinese Communist Party in mainland China is multi-ethnic nationalism based on the concept of Zhonghua minzu (中华民族, lit: "Chinese folk"). Zhonghua minzu is translated as "Chinese nation", "Chinese people", "Chinese ethnicity" and "Chinese race".[9][10][11] Some critics have referred to Chinese nationalism as "racial nationalism".[4]

Some argue that the term Zhonghua minzu is intended to justify the

assimilationist" policy. Jamil Anderlini, an editor for the Financial Times, said that the concept of "Chinese race" nominally includes 56 officially recognized ethnicities (including Tibetans and Uyghurs) in China, but is "almost universally understood to mean the majority Han ethnic group, who make up more than 90 per cent of the population."[10]

Germany

Japan

Korea

Korean racial nationalism is related to the concept of minjok, which often translates as "race" in the English-speaking world. In the 20th century, racial nationalist sentiment was shared on all

left-wing nationalists who wished for Korean reunification.[14] According to Brian Reynolds Myers, racial nationalism in North Korea is the main ideology of maintaining the system.[15]

Many modern

ethnic group",[16][17] because minjok (민족, lit: "folk") and injong (인종, lit: race) are distinct concepts in Korean language.[17][18][19] However, many non-Korean observers actually recognize minjok as meaning of "race" because "Korean minjok" (한민족 or 조선민족) is defined by 'pure Korean blood'.[16][20][21][22][23]

Northeast Asians (NEA – Chinese, Koreans, Japanese) strike me as quite nationalistic, and nationalism up here is still tied up in right-Hegelian, 19th century notions of blood and soil. In China, the Han race is the focus of the government's newfound, post-communist nationalism. In Korea, it is only the racial unity of minjeok that has helped keep Korea independent all these centuries. In Japan, the Yamato race is so important that even ethnic Koreans living there for generations can't get citizenship and there's no immigration despite a contracting population. MC in NEA faces huge political opposition that the already existing multiculturalism of South and Southeast Asia (SEA) don't face.
