Abstract:

China is one of the largest multinational countries in the world, in which the solution of ethno-confessional problems, remains relevant as well as for any other multiethnic state. The ethnic conflict in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region is quite acute for all. The development of theoretical approaches, the actual practice of the PRC government programs’ implementation deserves a special assessment. The peculiarities of the cultural and historical development of the peoples, who live in the autonomous territories were paid attention to and discussed by the authors. The question of changing official Beijing 's policy at present time towards national minorities is at the center of attention of the proposed study. In response to the development of ethnic groups in Xinjiang, the Chinese government has formulated a work program from various perspectives. The government focuses on the promotion of education and the growth of economy. The study is based on the analysis of the Chinese government’ state programs, their practical implementation. The authors presented the survey of the multi-ethnic Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region’ representatives. The poll shows that the population as a whole assesses the government's actions positively, but there are also critical sentiments. The authors assume that the ethnic policy of the "second generation" is aimed at reducing national differences and integrating ethnic groups into a single society of fellow citizens of China. The changes and new trends in the national policy of the Communist Party of China, and the ways of interethnic relations management in the context of Chinese politics are shown in the article.
