流动社会中地方精英的生成:一座民营博物馆的诞生

Generation of Local Elites in Flowing Society:Birth of a Private-run Museum

论文采用个人生活史的方法,以一座民营博物馆诞生历程为案例,对流动社会中地方精英的生成过程与特征进行分析。论文认为,当前社会变迁所带来的流动性为外来者进入地方社会,并成长为地方精英提供了社会文化“场域”。流动社会的开放性特征也使得外来者具备调动各种“资本”、调整“惯习”,实现从“外来者”到“地方精英”转变的可能。然而,这一由外而内的地方精英的生成路径,存在着如何融入地方社会的困境。外来精英在依靠外部资本与权力成长为地方精英的同时,亦需在文化层面上强化与地方社会的联系,才能真正实现从外来精英到地方精英的转变。

By means of personal life history this paper conducts an analysis of process and features regarding the generation of local elites in flowing society based on a case of private-run museum.It is argued that the flows brought forth by contemporary social transformation provide a social cultural"field"for outsiders to enter local society and grow up to be local elites.The open-oriented features of flowing society make it possible for outsiders to be furnished with a variety of"capitals",adjust their"habitus",and change in identity to"local elites".Nevertheless,there exists a dilemma concerning how to integrate into local society when it comes to the generation path of local elites from outside to inside.Outside elites rely on external capitals and power to become local elites,but they should strengthen association with local society so as to make a real-sense transformation of identity.
