Since 1950, Huang Xianfan led the group making a largest and deepest investigation on ethnic history and traditional <a href="/wiki/Culture" title="Culture">culture</a> in <a href="/wiki/Guangxi" title="Guangxi">Guangxi</a> history. They had collected a lot of valuable materials and laid a foundation for further research on Zhuang ethnic social and historical culture. That was a very important beginning for later development of Zhuang ethnic research and establishment of Guangxi institute of ethnic studies. Therefore, the inception of Zhuang studies as an authentic academic discipline is thus associated with the first ethnologist Huang Xianfan de Zhuang who is considered as its founder to present day,<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> the other early zhuang studies of note being Huang Zengqing (<a href="/wiki/Huang_group" class="mw-redirect" title="Huang group">Huang group</a>'s member and the first archaeological researcher of the Guangxi) who in 1957 occupied the first chair for Zhuang's <a href="/wiki/Archaeology" title="Archaeology">archaeology</a> studies in China and Zhou Zuoqiou, who was primarily the pioneering subject of the zhuang literature in <a href="/wiki/Guangxi_Normal_University" title="Guangxi Normal University">Guangxi Normal University</a>. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Huang_group" class="mw-redirect" title="Huang group">Bagui School</a> (The first ethnic school in <a href="/wiki/China" title="China">China</a> and pioneer is <a href="/wiki/Huang_Xianfan" title="Huang Xianfan">Huang Xianfan</a>) was particularly significant for the development of the discipline since the early 1950s with Huang Xianfan, Huang Zengqing, Ban Xiouwen, Ou Yang Ruoxiou, Qin Cailuan, Qin Naichang, Qin Shengmin, He Longqun, Yu Shijie, Qin Deqing, Pan Qixu, Huang Hanjin and Zeng Chaoxiong.,<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1957, the Guangxi government established the Guangxi institute of ethnic studies to promote Zhuang studies around China. In 1991 the Guangxi Zhuang Studies Society was established, and in April 1999 the first international Zhuang studies conference was held in Wuming with scholars from 8 different countries.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Over the last few decades in other countries the studies of the Zhuang have opened towards other disciplines, resulting in works with interdisciplinary approach. As examples of such open-minded Zhuang researcher we might mention the <a href="/wiki/United_States" title="United States">American</a> anthropologist Jeffrey Barlow, among others, who has done noted research and publications on lexical questions, about Zhuang culture and the modern history of Zhuang.
