Chapter V explores the survival conditions of ethnic dance from the mutual demand of various forces from the sharing of the two dimensions of villages and villages, and villages and outside world.Three conclusions have been made through the above analysis:Firstly, in the integration of scattered inhabitants’cultures, the bodies of people is not divided by "nationality", but jointly construct the body languages of group in the dialogue and sharing of body experiences. For the dance form, to avoid the "nation"to be the crystallization properties.The cognition on dancing requires getting the local knowledge, to form the supplement to the existing dancing classification system.Secondly, during the scattered inhabitants’nationality cultural contact, the body language is formed during the interaction of ethnic groups. While sharing the dance, people also share a cultural type and a living way. During this process, the sharing of body language also promotes the coexistence and harmony of multi-ethnic communities with the communication of mutual views of values.The national dance function can help people eliminate segment, formation of group identity.Thirdly, in the mutual demands between villages and the outside world, the body experience of people sharing is expressed as the prominent particular ethnic image among stage artistic images. The reconstruction upon "speech" of forces of all parties forms the transmitted and shared dancing "language" of the peoples in the field. The inheritance of tradition requires the intensification of the deep cognition and understanding between the cultural subjective and objective bodies, then the common cultural prosperity can comes after the beauty of "form".
