边界维持理论视野下印尼华人族群性的变迁分析

The Ethnicity Changes of Chinese Indonesians:From the Perspective of Boundary Maintenance Theory

论文利用巴斯的族群边界维持理论分析了华人族群性的多个层面,并从原生性华人族群性、宗教信仰与价值观念、语言和风俗习惯、民族主义等方面,考察了印尼华人不同层面族群性的历史变迁。在此基础上,对影响印尼华人族群性的行为体进行了分析探讨。认为21世纪后,印尼华人族群性的复苏,不仅是华人被压抑的族群认同的外在表现,更是华人追求享有与其他族群平等权利的重要体现。这种"再华化",与20世纪初以中国为中心、视中国为自己归属的"再华化"有本质区别。现在大多数印尼华人都已加入印尼国籍或出生于当地,在政治上认同印尼。华人文化的复苏和华人意识的觉醒,是为了凸显华人与其他族群的边界,表明华人族群在政治、经济、社会等领域的诉求。其出发点是为了更好地在印尼生存发展,而不是以中国为中心的"再华化"。

This paper analyzes different layers of Chinese ethnic identity Boundary Maintenance theory including Chinese original ethnic identi using Fredrik Barth＇ s ty, religious beliefs, moral values, language and custom as well as nationalism. It argues that the reasons why Chinese ethnic identity revived in the 21st century are not only because of the repression of their ethnic identity but also their pursuit of equal rights with other ethnic groups. The ＂ Re- Sinicization＂ has fundamental difference with the China-centered ＂ Re-Chinesization＂. The majority of Chinese Indonesians has joined Indonesian nationality or was born in Indonesia; therefore, these individuals recognize Indonesian identity politically. The revival of Chinese culture and consciousness has an aim to draw a boundary between Chinese and other ethnic groups, and to express Chinese voice in politics, economy and society. However, their ultimate goal is to make a better living in Indonesia, but not ＂re-Chinesization＂.
