本計畫主要以建立成漢政權的賨人李氏家族為中心，探討四世紀上半葉中國西南地區的族群關係。成漢政權是當時唯一由華南非華夏族群建立的政權，賨人李氏家族遷徙、任官與建立政權的過程史料是豐富的。從目前中國古代華南族群史的研究，焦點逐漸關注於華南非華夏族群被納入華夏政權統治後處境的情況下，賨人李氏家族可說是一個理解此課題的絕佳例證。與賨人一同建立成漢政權者尚有氐人，與賨人一起活動時也使用了「巴氐」名號，考察政權建立過程中族群內部的如何凝聚，族群名號的使用與變化，亦也可更深入理解在當時政治社會秩序的情況下，非華夏族群的生存策略。此外，賨人亦非當時反抗西晉政權唯一的華南非華夏族群，當時華南多起動亂都牽涉到華南非華夏族群，且也多有出任華夏政權中行政、軍事掾吏的經驗，族群內部亦存在階層的分化。故本計畫也希望由此反思族群關係中「漢化」的解釋方式，重新去理解華南非華夏族群的歷史。
