This article briefly traces the history of the idea of 'race' in modern China. From the nineteenth century onwards, an increasing insistence on biological differences between the ingroup and the outgroup came to contrast with traditional Chinese culturally oriented ethnocentrism. This transition from cultural universalism to racial exclusiveness started during the middle of the nineteenth century and was completed in the 1920s. Four main historical phases can be distinguished: (1) the heightening of a racial consciousness from the Opium War (1842) to the Sino-Japanese War (1894-5); (2) the emergence of the idea of a yellow race, opposed to a superior white race in its struggle for control over the other races (1895-1902); (3) the development of a nationalistic vision of race, narrowed down to the Han Chinese, perceived as a homogeneous biological unit descended from the Yellow Emperor (1902-15); and (4) the infusion of science into a racial rhetoric that emphasized the original purity, genetic foundation and biological uniqueness of the ingroup in its interpretation of outgroups (1915-49
