Hùnxuè'ér (Chinese: )[1] is a Chinese language term referring to mixed race people. It literally means "mixed-blood child." This term is used for all mixed race people.

History

For decades following the Chinese Revolution of 1949, marriages between foreigners and Chinese people were unusual, and perhaps non-existing during the Cultural Revolution, but they were never explicitly banned or judged unacceptable on a racial basis. It wasn't until the mid-1970s that the first petitions for permission to marry foreigners were accepted, with the thawing of diplomatic relationship between China and the USA, and such marriages remained relatively unusual for a further two decades.[2]

From 1994 to 2008, each year has seen about 3,000 more mixed-race marriages in Shanghai than the previous year.[3] This has caused a major shift in China's attitudes to race and of Chinese children of mixed race heritage due to globalization.[4][5][6][7][8]
