统合:透视当代中国社会阶级阶层关系的新框架(上)

Unity:the New Frame of Social Stratums in China Today(the first half)

在改革开放的三十年来,当代中国的社会结构发生了质的变迁,延续了几千年的超稳定结构被消解了,渐渐地出现了一个全新的社会结构形态,即初具现代化雏形的社会结构。在社会结构中,阶级阶层结构是最为核心的部分,对阶级阶层关系的研究应当是认识当前中国社会结构巨大变迁的最佳切入点。面对学术界将阶级和阶层研究对立起来的问题,从中国的现状出发,把阶级分析与阶层分析统合在一起,用统合式的框架来透视和研究当代中国社会阶级阶层关系,一些理论和现实问题可以得到较为恰当的解决。

In the past 30 years since reform and opening up in 1979, fundamental changes have taken place in China＇s social structure. In the new structure, class stratum structure is the core, which is a better angle to understand China＇s social structure today. Some scholars conflict class and stratum. We should combine class analysis with stratum analysis so as to survey the relationships of stratums at all levels. In this way some theoretical and realistic problems can be solved.
