构建与嬗变——新中国成立初期《婚姻法》在黔东南民族地区的推行

Construction and Evolution——on the Implementation of the Marriage Law in the Eastern and Southern Ethnic Regions of Guizhou Province in the early years of New China

新中国成立初期,黔东南地区大力宣传贯彻《婚姻法》,改革各种封建婚姻陋习,逐步确立了新民主主义的婚姻制度,使婚姻自由观念得到逐步确立,妇女地位得到很大提高,并基本建立起结婚登记制度。《婚姻法》的推行在一定程度上促进了妇女的解放,为黔东南地区政治、经济和社会生活等方面的巨大变革奠定了基础。但少数民族地区传统的婚姻习俗并非一纸法令就可以完全改变,社会风俗的变化也不可能完全靠行政的手段来解决。因此,《婚姻法》在黔东南地区的推行不是一帆风顺的,少数民族地区婚姻制度的变革不可能一蹴而就。

In the early years of new China,the eastern and southern ethnic regions of Guizhou province vigorously propagated the Marriage Law,reformed all kinds of bad habits of feudal marriage and gradually established marriage institution of new democracy,and thus gradually established the free opinions of marriage,promoted women's standing and basically set up the system of marriage registration. The implementation of the Marriage Law advanced women's liberation to some extent and laid the solid foundation for the great changes in political,economical and social life in the eastern and southern ethnic regions of Guizhou province.However,traditional marriage custom in ethnic minority area could not be changed completely only by a piece of decree and the changes of social custom could not fully be resolved by administrative measures.Therefore the implementation of the Marriage Law in the eastern and southern ethnic regions of Guizhou province had not been plain sailing and the reform of marriage system in ethnic minority area could not be succeed overnight.
