从“外省青年”到“农村新人”:新世纪乡土小说中流动农民形象的一个侧面考察

From“Young People from Other Provinces”to“New Rural People”:A Survey of the Image of Migrant Farmers in the Local Novels of the New Century

从乡土中国到城乡中国的社会转型,以及乡村振兴战略、扶贫攻坚项目的推动,塑造“农村新人”成为作家自觉的追求。这些“农村新人”大都是突围农村成功的青年农民,野心勃勃并成功立足城市,获取了人生蜕变的资本、技术和现代观念。但在“乡愁”的召唤下,这批外省青年返回家乡,重新构建“农民与土地”的关系。他们围绕土地流转大力发展现代农业,打造“农业、产业、生态”于一体的乡村共同体,带领乡村致富,整合城乡文化,成为名副其实的乡村领头人。可见,在大迁徙时代,“外省青年”与“农村新人”之间形成某种有效的勾连,身份的漂移性成为新时代农村新人的典型特征。

The social transformation from rural China to urban and rural China,as well as the promotion of rural revitalization strategy and the poverty alleviation project,has made it a writer’s self-conscious pursuit to delineate“new rural people”.Most of these people are ambitious and successful young farmers who have broken out of the identity barrier,and have successfully established themselves in the city,acquiring the capital,technology and modern ideas for their life transformation.However,under the call of“nostalgia”,those young people from other provinces have returned to their hometowns to rebuild the relationship between“farmers and the land”.Centering on land transfer,they have vigorously developed modern agriculture,built a rural community integrating“agriculture,industry and ecology”,led their villagers onto the road of wealth,integrated urban and rural culture,and thus become veritable rural leaders.It can be seen that in the era of great migration,a certain effective connection has been formed between“young people from other provinces”and“new rural people”,and the identity change and instability has became the typical characteristics of new rural people in the new era.
