從鄉到城──一個中國縣城的社會轉型

From Village to City: Social Transformation in a Chinese County Seat

Traduit par 陳亮, 張樂 ...

par 任柯安, Andrew Byron Kipnis ...

Collections Livre 14 - 人文社會叢書
鄒平是中國山東省的一個縣，1930年代思想家梁漱溟等人在此開啟其鄉村建設實驗，半世紀之後，人類學者任柯安（Andrew B. Kipnis）以此地作為田野調查的場域，展開長達25年的社會轉型研究。自1988至2013年，任柯安定期造訪鄒平，從人類學的視角、理論、方法與實踐出發，見證了鄒平從一個3萬人口的農業縣城，蛻變成30多萬人口的繁榮城市。他提出了「重組」的概念，來闡釋鄒平這些年來的變化與轉型，並與既有的各種現代化理論相互參照，進而對話。在任柯安的觀察和論述中，重組意味著在社會變化的過程中，舊元素的循環和新元素的吸收同時發生，變是帶著過去的延續，而非邀進的斷裂。本書對於理解當代中國社會變遷，城鄉差距、移民機制、以及城鎮發展過程所面臨的挑戰，提供了啟發性的觀點；同時也對現代化理論的檢視與修正，做出了貢獻。 ...

Collections Livre 20 - 人文社會叢書
中國的家長很重視子女的教育，普遍希望孩子能讀大學，而這是台灣社會也不陌生的現象。澳大利亞人類學家任柯安將這種大眾對教育一致的期望稱為「教育欲望」。在本書中，任柯安把長期在中國山東鄒平觀察到的這種教育欲望，與「文化」、「治理」及「具地體現」的概念相結合，從地方脈絡、國家政策、歷史傳統、普遍性等層面，探索教育欲望的形成與實踐，析論什麼樣的因素促使它成為整體性的社會現象，並影響到家庭開支和國民經濟的優先順序、出生率、種族關係、治理模式、社會與政治階序等。任柯安對中國教育文化的精闢分析，啟發我們去思考教育欲望與社會轉型及治理實踐的關係，並檢視教育欲望如何被定位在台灣、東亞社會，甚或世界其他地區。 ...
