For seven years in the 1970s, the author lived in a village in northeast China as an ordinary farmer. In 1989, he returned to the village as an anthropologist to begin the unparalleled span of eleven years’ fieldwork that has resulted in this book―a comprehensive, vivid, and nuanced account of family change and the transformation of private life in rural China from 1949 to 1999. The author’s focus on the personal and the emotional sets this book apart from most studies of the Chinese family. Yan explores private lives to examine areas of family life that have been largely overlooked, such as emotion, desire, intimacy, privacy, conjugality, and individuality. He concludes that the past five decades have witnessed a dual transformation of private life: the rise of the private family, within which the private lives of individual women and men are thriving.
Yunxiang Yan is Professor of Anthropology at the University of California, Los Angeles, and Adjunct Professor in the School of Public Policy and Social Development, Fudan University, China. He is the author of Te Flow of Gifts: Reciprocity and Social Networks in a Chinese Village (Stanford University Press, 1996), Private Life under Socialism: Love, Intimacy, and Family Change in a Chinese Village, 1949–1999 (Stanford University Press, 2003) and The Individualization of Chinese Society (Berg, 2009). His research interests include family and kinship, social change, the individual and individualization, and moral changes in post-Mao China.
十分失望,仅仅是一个标准化的中国研究,拿到列文森奖也就不奇怪也不值得吹嘘了。虽然是一个严肃的研究,但是套路是西方理论加中国经验,先不论有没有中国主体性的问题意识,本身对于西方理论自身反思性不足,而经验田野也不进行深描。导致研究在理论还是在经验上都显得...
评分一、引言 对实地调查经验的高度依赖和重视,是经验研究区别于一切玄谈的最根本的标志。但对经验研究者自身而言,则似乎也同样需要警醒,经验的重要性并不代表它能自动呈现理论命题的答案。没有理论加工的“裸体”经验,虽未必没有任何意义,却很难归为学术研究。例如,人...
评分3年前,我读完余华的《兄弟》下,难掩内心的失望,在个人空间上留下了这样一段话: “故事黑暗,充满了性和狂乱,这都没有关系,谁都知道现在就算不是一个最坏的时代,也绝非天堂,人类正不可避免地走向堕落。但,难道余华你也仅仅看到了这些,并只能用一个‘伦理...

评分有幸听过阎云翔教授的讲座,也是我大学里听的为数不多的讲座之一。阎云翔教授的讲座很精彩,他关于道德不过是资源缺乏时统治阶级对资源进行分配(对人们进行统治)的手段的观点让我很受启发,看问题要有更宽的视野,对问题要有更深的洞彻和理解,不能只停留在想当然的...
私人生活,还是家庭生活
评分不懂为什么这么高分。是读过的最不喜欢的一本ethnography了。
评分目前来说,起码出发点是令人感到启发的。反思西方学界的bias从而发起一个新的研究,为我提供了一种思路。//一本充满了关怀的具有重要学术意义的开创性的个人为中心的民族志。
评分巨好看
评分讲述了一个东北村落亲密关系的变化,有两个蛮有意思的点,一个是private,但看起来和private/public的理念没有什么关系;另一点则是从1950一直到市场经济下,作者都用了“under socialism”,代表作者认同中间的连贯性(而非“post-socialism”)
