清代巴蜀场镇社会功能研究

A Study on Functions of Town Society in Sichuan in Qing Dynasty

场镇社会是清代巴蜀移民社会的基本内容之一。场镇是居民买卖活动的集散地,也是人们社会生活的中心地,还是官方进行社会控制的重要地方。农村基层社会的许多功能大多能通过集市得到反映。

Town as a society was one of the fundamental contents of a migrant society in Sichuan in Qing Dynasty. A town was a social life center, as well as a business fair. More importantly, it was an important place where officials exercised social control. Most functions of rural grassroots societies were reflected by the market of a town.
