Schneider give an analysis of nationalist and historiographical discourses among late imperial and early republican Chinese thinkers. She particularly researches their approaches towards non-Chinese people within the Qing Empire and the question on how to integrate these people into a Chinese nation-state. These non-Chinese people, mainly Manchus, Mongols, Tibetans and Turkic Muslims, (Uyghurs), have not been considered as important factors in the history of early Chinese nationalism so far. But Chinese nationalist and historiographical discourses tell not only a lot about the Chinese image of the Other, but also shed new light on the images of the Chinese Self and its assumed ability to assimilate and integrate other ethnicities.
