农民家庭生活新秩序的建构:功能主义视角的解读

Family Construction of Peasant Family Life's New Order——From the Functional Perspective

以往人们对于家庭的认识多是从感情、伦理和道德等层面展开的,不过现实经验却越来越复杂。从功能主义的视角来看,农民的家庭生活新秩序正在被建构成型。本文从家庭分工、家庭关系和家庭意义三个层面来具体阐释农民家庭生活新秩序建构的实践机制。本文认为,代际分工构成了家庭分工重塑的核心内容,引起了家庭关系的结构性变化,进而引发了家庭的意义变迁。这种家庭生活新秩序是一种建立在家庭分工、功能分化和关系调适基础上的有机整合系统,其中伴随着道德的实用化与价值的个体化。这启示我们,必须以全新的视角来看待家庭生活领域正在经历的各种"危机",顺应并保障家庭生活新秩序的建构。

From the perspective of functionalism, the peasants' family life is being constructed. This article analyzed practice mechanism of the construction of new order of peasant family life from the division of family, family relationship and family signifi cance. The conclusion is that intergenerational labor division constitutes the core content of family division, causes the structural changes of family relations, and changes the meaning of family.

The implication is that we should analyze‘crisis' in family life with new perspective and protect the construction of family life new order.
