少数民族影视是生产、培育、传播并塑造各个民族共同心理的重要载体，也是构筑中华民族共有精神家园的有机要素，更是铸牢中华民族共同体意识的主要阵地之一。本文主要从少数民族影视与铸牢中华民族共同体意识的关系视角进行分析得出：少数民族影视生产、发展、传播、创新是铸牢中华民族共同体意识的有效路径，并在理论与实践逻辑两个方面都具有高度的一致性。具体来说，理论上主要表现为少数民族影视生产、发展与铸牢中华民族共同体意识在本质逻辑上的紧密相连与结构逻辑上的相辅相成；实践上主要表现其传播、创新在功能逻辑上的相得益彰与选择逻辑上的殊途同归。正确认识少数民族影视生产、发展、传播、创新层面与铸牢中华民族共同体意识的多重逻辑，才能促进少数民族影视与铸牢中华民族共同体意识协调发展。

Based on an exploration of the content and function of ethnic minority films and television,this paper analyzes the community consciousness of the Chinese nation as contained in ethnic minority films and television as well as their role in forging a sense of community for the Chinese nation. Furthermore,it tries to put forward some strategies for developing ethnic minority film and television,in order to enrich the research on fostering a sense of community for the Chinese nation and to provide some references for follow-up research.This study holds that,first,from the perspective of essence logic there appears to be a close relationship between the ethnic minority film/television and a sense of community for the Chinese nation: ethnic minority film and television are concrete carriers of the consciousness of the Chinese national community,and their role is also consistent with the path of forging a sense of community for the Chinese nation. In other words,minority film and television have been playing a significant role in consolidating the consciousness of the Chinese national community.Second,findings indicate that in terms of structure,minority film and television and the consolidation of consciousness of the Chinese national community complement each other. Ethnic minority film and television include an explicit level of audio-visual elements,such as directly perceived pictures and sounds,and an implicit level of indirectly perceived connotations,such as politics,history,culture,and spirit. The two levels share eight aspects including scene,text,language,music,politics,history,culture,and spirit,which are all related to the formation and consolidation of a strong sense of the Chinese national community.Third,in terms of function,ethnic minority film and television and the consolidation of consciousness of the Chinese national community seem to be interdependently coherent with each other. A sense of community for the Chinese nation is based on a common psychology of mutual recognition among all ethnic groups,and the way to consolidate it lies in the cultivation,spread,deepening,and further strengthening of this common way of thinking. Furthermore,ethnic minority film and television possess both the communication function of general film and television and a special function of aggregating national culture and spirit,which plays an important role in casting the community consciousness of the Chinese nation,research suggest.Fourth,in terms of choice,ethnic minority film and television together with the consciousness of the Chinese national community share the same destination. Minority film and television can forge a strong sense of the Chinese national community,and the sense of the Chinese national community has additionally been guiding the development of minority film and television. Therefore,as for a sense of community for the Chinese nation,the government should provide more political and economic support intending to advance the development of ethnic minority films and television.In short,as a cultural carrier,ethnic minority film and television are the integration of the external material and internal spirit of ethnic minorities,carrying the elements of the Chinese national community consciousness. As a media,it can widely spread the culture and spirit of ethnic minorities,promote communication and integration among ethnic groups,and further promote the common consciousness among ethnic groups. From these two aspects,ethnic minority film and television are effective tools and paths to forge a sense of community for the Chinese nation.
