草稿:民族旗

  提示：此草稿的主题不是旗 (行政区划)。

民族旗（英語：Ethnic flag）是象徵特定族裔共同體的一種旗幟，通常是經過各自的民族文化或政治運動引進族群社區。民族旗在流散僑民、少數民族和部分多數民族中很常見，尤其是在多元族群國家。

歷史

民族旗是於19世紀末期出現的近代概念，與國家政府使用的國旗（state's national flag）概念相同。嚴格來說，民族國家的國旗本身就是一種民族旗幟，其在別國的少數族裔僑胞經常如此使用，特別是在牽涉到領土收復主義的情況下，例如：阿爾巴尼亞國旗被用作為科索沃阿爾巴尼亞人的「阿爾巴尼亞民族旗」。

民族旗被用於領土收復主義，是代表擬議或未被承認國家的「國旗」（national flag）。首批類似的旗幟出現於19世紀末期，例如：巴斯克旗幟（1894年）、世界猶太復國主義組織的「錫安旗」（1898年，50年後成為以色列國旗）。大多數早期出現的民族旗幟，都暗示著與各自民族聲稱擁有的歷史國家或歷史上未被承認國家有關，例如：庫爾德斯坦旗幟起源於亞拉臘共和國（1927年）的旗幟；1932年設計的西班牙裔旗幟，其紫紅色代表西班牙語，是源自古代萊昂王國國旗繪製紫紅色獅子的象徵意義。 或者，「民族旗」可能代表泛民族主義，例如：第一次世界大戰期間，源自阿拉伯起義旗的泛阿拉伯顏色、泛斯拉夫主義（1848年）、泛伊朗主義或泛突厥主義的擬議旗幟。

20世紀後期，使用民族旗象徵多民族國家內的族群概念開始流行，例如：澳大利亞土著旗（1971年）、亞述人旗幟（1971年）、羅姆人之旗（1971年）、柏柏爾旗（1970年代）、薩米旗（1986年）或毛利人旗幟（1990年）。1990年代以來，設計民族或部落旗變得非常流行，尤其是在虛擬網路上使用，而且大多沒有任何官方地位，必須根據實際使用情況來判斷。許多情況下，主權國家的國旗經常被其海外公民視為事實上的民族旗。

用途

更多信息：民族主義、民族統一主義、分離主義、無國家民族和無代表國家和民族組織

民族旗作為族群共同體的一種象徵符號，無疑會間接地牽涉到相當複雜的國家認同、國族建構、民族自決和政治前途問題。各種不同的因素在環境互動下，可能造成國家、民族與族群的矛盾關係，引起不滿的民族主義情緒或族群衝突。

沒有明確國家的民族

近代，這種民族地位的典型例子是猶太人和羅姆人。猶太人於第一次錫安主義代表大會表決通過象徵猶太復國主義的錫安旗，1948年以色列建國後成為其國旗。羅姆人於1971年在倫敦舉行首次世界羅姆人大會，之後開始採用羅姆人之旗。

擁有居住領土，但沒有自己國家或自治實體的民族

這些通常是已經失去國家獨立或自治地位，或從未獨立建國的民族，他們使用的旗幟可以分為兩種類型。第一種被國家政府認為是分裂主義的表現，在其居住領土被禁止，例如：歷史上奧匈帝國領土的摩拉維亞和其他斯拉夫旗幟、2003年以前伊拉克和土耳其的庫爾德斯坦旗幟、西班牙佛朗哥政權下的巴斯克旗幟和加泰羅尼亞旗幟、中華人民共和國的東突厥斯坦和雪山獅子旗。

第二種是被民間團體活動使用的旗幟，與名義上的國家相比較，其民族的社會文化活動不被視為對國家主權的威脅，例如：拉脫維亞立窩尼亞人使用的立窩尼亞旗、芬蘭和挪威薩米人使用的薩米旗。

不同於國旗的民用旗幟

有些國家的國民（national）使用的國旗，完全不同於國家政體的官方旗（state flag），這些旗幟可以分為兩種類型。第一種是政府刻意區分不同用途的旗幟，例如：所有德國公民都有權使用沒有國徽的聯邦旗，但同樣旗幟加上國徽僅限政府機構使用，這種民用旗幟在旗幟學中被稱為民旗（civil flag）。第二種是出於政治原因，反對當前政權使用的國旗，例如：2006年黑山國旗獨立公投之前所採用的國旗與塞爾維亞國旗極為相似，選擇保留其作為黑山國旗的地位，實際上僅有塞爾維亞族群的支持者，一些塞爾維亞民族政黨和其他民族組織，至今仍然提倡將這面旗幟作為國旗。

更多的例子包括，民族主義者否定當前國家政權的統治合法性，採用與官方旗幟對立的「真正的國旗」，例如：蘇聯加盟共和國前身國家的旗幟，在蘇聯時代被嚴格禁止，但被民族獨立的支持者使用；魏瑪共和國期間，德意志民族主義者將黑-紅-金三色旗視為「佔領旗幟」，並採用對立的黑-白-紅三色旗。現存的這類實例，包括流離海外白俄羅斯人使用的白紅白旗、海外車臣人組織使用的前車臣伊奇克里亞共和國國旗。

提倡俄羅斯民族主義運動的代表組織，經常使用1858年俄羅斯帝國批准黑-黃-白三色的帝國旗，並加上紋章作為俄羅斯民族旗，部分地與白-藍-紅三色的俄羅斯國旗形成對比。

使用其他國家的國旗作為民族旗幟

這些民族旗幟可能被合法或不合法使用，取決於其居住領土的最高統治國家，如何看待這種民族政治運動，例如：科索沃阿爾巴尼亞人採用的阿爾巴尼亞國旗、愛沙尼亞和拉脫維亞俄羅斯人採用的俄羅斯國旗、塞族共和國（波黑）塞爾維亞人採用的塞爾維亞國旗、納戈爾諾-卡拉巴赫亞美尼亞人採用的亞美尼亞國旗、塞浦路斯共和國土耳其人採用的土耳其國旗和北塞浦路斯土耳其共和國希臘人採用的希臘國旗。

原住民族的特殊地位

有些國家的原住民族有法定地位，他們使用的旗幟具有官方或半官方的意義，例如：1995年澳大利亞通過土著旗與托雷斯海峽島民旗有相同於澳大利亞國旗的憲法地位、玻利維亞通過科利亞蘇尤與紅-黃-綠三色旗並列為雙國旗、紐西蘭毛利人旗幟可以在正式場合懸掛、俄羅斯聯邦為某些少數民族而設的自治共和國旗幟、美洲原住民的部落旗幟（tribal flag）。
