The Identity Construction and Material Spatial Transformations of Relocated Immigrants in Yi Ethnic Areas —A Survey from Y County in the Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture
The space of Yi immigrants encompasses the interactive relationship between “immigrantsspace- practical behavior”, which is a complex system. In this space, the identity of Yi immigrants is strengthened, while the pattern and function of their material living space have also undergone tremendous changes. The formation of the space of Yi immigrants is completed through the interaction between the state and the Yi immigrant group. On the one hand, the implementation of national poverty alleviation policies is a key factor in the emergence of the identity of Yi immigrants who have relocated from their original places. On the other hand, the response of the immigrant group itself to the external environment is also an extremely important core element.
