走西口移民后代“寻根问祖”心理的跨文化研究——以山西河曲县南沟周为例

A Cross-cultural Study on the Psychology of the Immigrant Descendants in the Westward Migration Movement Looking for their Families' Roots:A Case Study on Nangou Zhou in Hequ Shanxi Province

历时三个多世纪的走西口移民运动对近代中国的人口变迁、戍守边疆、经济社会发展起了重要作用。近年来,走西口移民后代通过修祠堂、续家谱、祭祖等"寻根问祖"活动,连结原本断裂的根祖文化链条,这一现象蕴含着移民后代对祖籍地特有的家族文化情结,有利于根祖文化、家族文化的传播,也有利于移民迁入地与祖籍地的互动。探讨走西口移民后代"寻根问祖"背后的心理因素,有利于弘扬西口文化与西口精神,也有利于弘扬中华民族优良传统。

The westward migration movement,which lasted more than three centuries,has played an important role in population change in modern China,defending the frontier,economic and social development.In recent years,the immigrants have been carrying forward root culture by repairing the ancestral temple,renewing genealogy and other activities.This phenomenon contains the family culture complex among the immigrants,and it is conducive to the spread of the family culture,to promote the interaction between the settlements and the ancestral villages.Thus exploring the psychological factors beyond the activities can not only carry forward Xikou Culture and Xikou Spirit,but also carries forward Chinese tradition.
