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.

His research interests include family and kinship, social change, the individual and individualization, and moral changes in post-Mao China.
文:成庆 当在80 年代末读到著名作家张贤亮的小说《绿化树》时,其时方为 青春少年,懵懂无知,读完全书,却为那位农村少妇马缨花对章永璘的爱情表白感到震惊,"你放心吧!就是钢刀把我头砍断,我血身子还陪着你哩!"抛开小说本身想象的情调,当时于我的最深印象,乃是农村女...
评分此书在美国学术界颇受好评,我也已久仰大名,五月回国时看到有中译本,便买来一本。这次去黑龙江之前想找本书在路上打发时间,想到此书是众多以中国的村庄为研究对象的人类学、社会学著作中我所知的唯一一本研究黑龙江农村的,正合我此行之意,便带上在路上看。 总的来说,此...
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,...

评分这本书两个目标,第一,驳斥中国文化没有男女间亲密关系(情感)的说法;第二,描述乡村家庭结构随着时间的变化(择偶,两性互动,空间私有化以及家庭结构),最后总结成由于国家力量和政策的关系造成了年轻一代世风日下、人心不古、物质主义的中国式个人主义。 第一个目...
巨好看
评分私人生活,还是家庭生活
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”)
评分其实呢,这个应该算是本土人类学的中国个案吧。
