On the6th Changchun Asian Winter Games in2007, Changbai Mountain D-ispute attracted a lot of attention when the Korean players on the podium held hi ghly a placard. The incident soon became a hot topic at the time, even result in th-e diplomatic crisis between China and South Korea. Although China and South Korea does not have any practical territorial disputes, Changbai Mountain is sacredly treated by Korean peninsula people as a national consciousness emotional vector. The external territory dispute manifestation of the imaginary community of nationalism and the nation-state construction becomes a clue to the culture dispute hidden behind it. Whether the role of the Northeast China in t-he context of geopolitical and ethnic politics implied in Changbai Mountain Disp-ute will be affected in the nation-state building process? Whether Changbai Mo-untain which has become a part of the territory of a sovereign state will bring a re-division to the existing ethnic group in the Northeast China with its an-other sy-mbolization? The questions come out of these issues are worth thinking and requ-est a reexamination to the political culture of the Northeast China.Papers from the Manchu culture of the Northeast under the main label image began to discuss, focusing on the Dongbei Area has experienced in modern times and the Russo-Japanese aggression Chinese political culture in transition as well as their role changes. Then the sight of the Korean Peninsula narrative scope of the Korean nation in its own nation-state building, process of re-shaping of the political culture, explaining the similar problems resulting from Changbai Mountain national psychology and national motives, proposed construction of cultural sovereignty importance to national security. At last trying to interpret the final core spirit of political culture in the Dongbei Area and pointed out that the political culture of the Northeast revisit practical significance.The construction of the nation-state is usually accompanied by drastic cha-nges in the social and cultural psychology. After the World War II, the North and South Korea on the Korean peninsula respectively carried on a deconstruction a nd repositioning of its own nation in the modern system of international commun-ity in their nation-state process in a national self-interest angle. This reshaping p-rocess of the political culture inevitably brought cultural sovereignty competitio n in Northeast Asia. As a nation with much space and many nationalities, frontier problems and territorial disputes are inevitable for China. And the country’s historical and cultural traditions with long history have made that forming the polity identity of frontier region is so difficult in modern world system. It is learned that how to establish their subjectivity of culture and that how to build frontier attachment with all embracing and inspiring capacity for the Northeast China, when the diversifying differences are integrated.
