仪式成本与象征收益——美姑县彝族农民阿伙某某家尼木措毕消费观念研究

The Ritual Cost and Symbolic Gratitude Fee:A study on Consumption Notion of Nimu Cuobi Practice of an Ahuo Yi Family in Meigu County

关于彝族尼木措毕的研究论文较多,但从仪式的成本与收益及消费观念的角度讨论凉山彝族尼木措毕仪式,应该是初次尝试。尼木措毕仪式是凉山彝族每个家庭几乎都要完成的一场大型的宗教仪式,仪式花费巨大。无论是贫困还是富裕的彝族家庭都传承这样的一个仪式,仪式的动力基于完成历史责任或期望通过本仪式获得预期收益等原因。仪式本身耗资巨大,未来收益无法在短时间得到体现,从经济学角度理解,彝族的尼木措毕仪式的消费观念应属于非理性消费,但从宗教学的意义来说,它又是非理性的理性选择。

There are many research papers about Nimu Cuobi of Yi nationality, but from the perspective of the cost and gratitude fee of the ritual and the concept of consumption, it is the first attempt to discuss the Liangshan Yi nationality Nimu Cuobi ritual. The Nimu Cuobi ritual was a large-scale religious ritual almost completed by each family of the Liangshan Yi ethnic group. The ritual was costly. Both the impoverished and the wealthy Yi families inherited such a ritual. The dynamism of the ritual was based on the completion of historical responsibilities or expectations of expected gains through this ritual.The rituals themselves are costly, and future returns cannot be reflected in a short period of time, from the perspective of economics, the concept of consumption of the Nimu Cuobi ritual of the Yi nationality should be irrational consumption, but in the sense of religious science, it is also a rational choice of irrationality.
