家庭的功能及其变迁:一种社会学的反思

On Functions and Changes of Family From the Perspective of Sociologist Theory

家庭是一个不断变化的单位组织,它随着社会的发展而呈现出不同的形式,其功能也出现了分化的现象。关于家庭变迁的研究,学界也提出了家庭消亡或家庭淡化等一些悲观的观点,而中国农村家庭的状况也似乎支持这些观点。然而,家庭作为社会最基本的单位,我们有必要对家庭的功能及其与社会的关系重新做出理论上的反思,从而回应家庭消亡论和家庭淡化论。

Family is an ever- changing organizational unit. Along with the rapid development of society,it shows not only different constructions,but different functions. Among the researches on family changes,some scholars have proposed some pessimistic views,such as the demise of the family and the dilution of the concept of home.,which popularizes in China＇s rural families..We need to rethink functiosns of family and its relationship with society. It is also necessary for us to do further study on these pessimistic views.
