苏南农村的“并家”婚姻模式及其新联合家庭结构

The Mutual Marriage Model in the Rural Areas of Southern Jiangsu and Its New Combined Family Structure

不同的婚姻形式具有不同的家庭关系与家庭结构。不同于嫁娶婚与招赘婚,苏南农村普遍盛行的"并家"是一种不嫁不娶的新型婚姻形式,体现了"并家"婚姻策略的平衡性原则,既保持了独生子女家庭的完整性,又重塑了双方父代家庭与子代家庭三者之间的权利义务关系,再造了一种合力向上流动、实现城镇化的新联合家庭结构。然而,新联合家庭结构虽有助于实现子代家庭的城市化,却是以双方父代家庭高积累低消费的生活为代价的,同时隐含着子代家庭趋于啃老生活的可能性后果。"并家"婚姻模式下的新联合家庭结构是理解当前农民家庭转型的一种新视角。

Different forms of marriage have different family relationships and family structures.Different from Traditional marriage and Recruiting marriage,the“Merged family”that is popular in rural areas of southern Jiangsu is a new form of Traditional marriage,and reflects the principle of balance of the“Merged family”marriage strategy,which not only maintains the family of only children.The integrity has reshaped the rights and obligations between the two generations of the father and the Offspring family,and recreated a new joint family structure that works together to achieve urbanization.However,although the new joint family structure helps to realize the urbanization of the offspring families,it is at the expense of the high accumulation and low consumption of the parents of the two generations,and at the same time implies the possibility that the offspring families tend to live an Old life.The new joint family structure under the“Merged family”marriage model is a new perspective to understand the current transformation of farmers’families.
