都市青年择偶场域分析——基于南京大型相亲会的实地研究

On the Fields for Urban Youth to Hunt Matching Mate: An Empirical Research of Large Blind—dating Fairs in Nanjing

当代都市青年的择偶方式与过程正在发生新变化。大型相亲会作为社会为解决择偶问题所做的一种努力,为都市青年提供了一个新型的择偶场域。实地研究发现,大型相亲会为有择偶需求的都市青年提供了交流平台与见面机会,但在实际解决择偶问题上却表现出极大无奈。信息不对称和舆论魔力导致供需双方发生利益冲突、策划精英与媒体共谋制约活动的公益性、市场化运作与相亲市场恐慌导致婚配逻辑畸形错位,以及婚配主体选择意愿的模糊性等极大地制约了相亲会功效的发挥。

Changes have taken place in the way and process of contemporary urban youth＇ s mate - selecting. As a social effort intending to help solve problems of spouse - hunting, large blind - dating fairs would like to pro- vide for the youth a new field. Empirical analyses of a field research found： such million - people fairs have tried to supply the people with platforms to communicate and opportunities to meet each other, which, however, are actually helpless in and have no practical effect on the solution of the issue. There are several influencing fac- tors, such as the conflict of interest between supply and demand caused by the information asymmetry and public opinion, the public welfare from the activities restricted by the conspiracy of the planning elite and media, the dislocation of marriage mating logic resulted from marketization and blind - date panic, and the subject＇ s fuzzy marital willingness, etc.
