DESCRIPTION:The vogue for "ethnicity" in many fields of historical study h
 as reified a concept for which there is little direct evidence in the hist
 orical record before the twentieth century. The original meanings of  "eth
 nicity" and the terms derived from it encompassed political and social dyn
 amics that have been obscured in many contemporary uses of "ethnicity" in 
 the social sciences. More importantly\,  the historical phenomena hidden b
 ehind ethnicity discourses in historiography appear to be connected to for
 ms of dependency and the affiliation of individuals with them. Using examp
 les mainly but not exclusively from Chinese history\, this talk traces the
  growth of ascriptive power of states from the medieval to modern periods\
 , suggesting that the derivative and synthetic aspects of "ethnicity" disc
 ourses might reveal the power and state issues that have generated them.
