甘宁青“穆斯林民族走廊”研究

回族等穆斯林民族，在甘宁青形成南北、东西两条带状分布带，即“银平穆斯林民族走廊”“河湟穆斯林民族走廊”。两条“穆斯林民族走廊”中的穆斯林各民族，在中国西北民族居住地理分布格局和经济地理格局中，均处于中间或交界地带，在各民族之间、各种文化之间发挥某种特殊的桥梁纽带作用。两条“穆斯林民族走廊”中的回、东乡、保安、撒拉等民族，由于相对集中聚居的缘故，其文化保持较为完整，民族性、宗教性表现突出。

A Study of "Muslim Passageway" of Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai in Northwest China

Muslims like the Hui are distributed like a strip along North-to -south and West -to- east in Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai, which for the moment called Yinping Muslim passageway and Hehuang Muslim passageway. Within these two passageways, Muslims are scattered in the middle or border area in terms of geographical distribution and econom- ic geographical pattern. These two passageways play the role of a bridge in ethnic interactions and cultural exchanges. Within these two passageways, the Hui, Dongxiang, Baoan and Sala ethnic groups keep a relatively complete culture with its unique ethnic and religious features for the sake of living in compact communities.
