重访云南三村及中缅边境地区——瑞士卢塞恩大学人类学教授尤瑞格·赫尔宾(Jürg Helbling)专访

Revisit the“Three Villages in Yunan”and Chinese-Burmese Border Area——An Interview with Anthropologist Jürg Helbling of University of Lucerne

2012年1月,笔者就云南三村及中缅边境地区的"中心-边缘"关系、民族政策、农业现代化、非物质文化遗产等问题采访了瑞士卢塞恩大学(University of Lucerne)的人类学教授尤瑞格·赫尔宾(Jürg Helbling)教授。尤瑞格认为:费孝通先生关于云南三村的研究和理论仍然非常适合当前此地区关于中心与边缘问题的研究;此外,李伯重、黄宗智、李中清、王丰等学者的作品也很有启发;在实际调查中发现,中心与边缘的差异在昆明和玉溪与在中缅边境的情况截然不同,同时,中心与边缘的差异并没有预想的那样大,而财富分配不均的问题似乎胜过了"中心-边缘"问题的重要性;在佤族地区,一方面政府尊重佤族人民的文化认同,另一方面旅游经济的快速发展,令佤族传统文化保护的前景堪忧。

In 2012,the History and Anthropology Mission from University of Lucerne, Switzerland had conducted a two-week fieldwork in the area of Yuxi and Chuxiong of Yunnan (that is'the three villages in Yunnan'mentioned in Fei Xiaotong's Earthbound China) and Ximeng area at Chinese-Burmese border area. As a Chinese coordinator-scholar,Xiao Qunbing participated this fieldtrip and interviewed Prof. Jürg Helbling regarding to the relationship between center and periphery,nationalities policy,agriculture modernization,intangible cultural heritage involved in this fieldtrip.
