Abstract: In China's border areas there live many ethnic minorities.And almost every minority has created its ethnic culture,forming its ethnic culture identity.At the same time,the minorities and the Han have jointly created the Chinese culture,and have formed and maintained the identity of the Chinese culture.The relationship between the two kinds of cultural identity will directly affect the governance effect of the frontier,the stability of the country's political situation,and the development speed of the whole country.To strengthen cultural integration,we should integrate ethnic culture into the Chinese culture,increase identity of Chinese culture,making it attract and guide the ethnic culture.Also through carrying out economic policies benefiting people and introducing Chinese culture and fine ethnic culture to the world,the ethnic minority people's identity of Chinese culture can be improved,thus the efficiency of frontier governance can be enhanced,and governance cost saved,which is in favor of political stability,unity and the integral development of the country.

Key words: frontier governance, ethnic culture, Chinese culture, identity integration, cultural identity
