摘　　要：民族可以划分为"古代民族"与"近代民族"两种类型,古代华夏民族在形成过程中经历了从"自在民族"到"自觉民族"两个发展阶段。夏商时期的华夏民族属于"自在民族",春秋战国时期的华夏民族属于"自觉民族"。作为"自在民族"的华夏民族之所以能够在夏商时期出现,是因为夏商王朝具有多元一体的复合制国家结构,复合制王朝国家框架内能够容纳众多部族。夏代之前的五帝时代,则属于华夏民族的滥觞期,这一时期经过族邦联盟,众多的部族国家最后走向多元一体的民族的国家。Nation can be classified into two categories:ancient nation'andmodern nation.' In its course of development,the ancient Chinese nation underwent a transition from aself-being nation'(in the Xia and Shang period)to aself-conscious one'(in the Spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period).The reason why the Chinese nation emerged as aself-being nation'in the Xia and Shang dynasties was that this period was characterized by apluralistic composite state structure that could accommodate a wide variety of clans and tribes.In the embryonic Five Emperors period before the Xia dynasty,different tribal states witnessed tribal and clan unions before becoming a unified national state.
