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...

评分我出生并生活了十几年的村庄坐落在华北平原一个靠近渤海湾的地方。阅读此书的时候,我很容易就可以将其与我的记忆做互参文本对照比较。此书的截止时间定在1999年。新世纪到来,变化加剧。然而其中的很多结论都有助于我对自己村庄种种事件的理解。虽然因发展速度和地域的差异,...
挺有趣的书,易读易懂,完了能让人注意到身边一些被忽视的变化。但是缺点也很明显,缺乏对既有概念的反思(love, privete life, privacy, romantic), 完全不分析这些概念在不同时空中的不同意义,假定它们有恒定的本质。同样被本质化的还有Tradition, traditional family之类的东西。这些东西在历史书写里都应该是可以多加考虑的。
评分深深赞叹人类学家观察的细致
评分如此长时间的田野采访,本该能写出更多东西的,不该如此蜻蜓点水
评分Collectivization and Decollectivization, the retreat of the state and constant hostility to any organized societal forces, the rising of individualism and youth autonomy and increasing egotism: Merits and problems. A critical review of private family, especially people's emotion, under socialism. KO的第二本教科书完毕。
评分特别车轱辘话!个体化、原子化、个人主义、个体主义全晕了ORZ
