政权“悬浮”与市场“困局”：一种农民上访行为的解释框架——基于鄂中G镇农民农田水利上访行为的分析

在本文中，作者首先考察和归纳了农民农田水利上访的两种类型：以个体为主的“纠纷延伸型”上访和以群体为主的“干旱求援型”上访。接着，作者对农民农田水利上访行为的发生机制进行研究后发现：农民的国家观念是农民针对农田水利问题上访的心理文化机制，而由政权“悬浮”和市场“困局”及二者的相互作用导致的农田水利恶化是上访发生的结构性因素。最后，作者针对目前学界的农民上访研究进行了扩展性讨论，认为农民上访研究应该适时地从“抽象”的上访研究向“具体”的、类型化的上访研究转化。

"Floating" Government and "Gridlocked" Market:A Frame of Explanation for Farmer Petition

In this essay, the author examines the phenomena of Chinese farmers sending petitions to the higher authorities with regard to their farmlands and irrigation, and summarizes these petitions into two types, namely ＂dispute-caused petitions＂ by individuals and ＂drought-caused petitions＂ by groups. By studying the rationale behind these petitions, the author discovers that the farmers＇ conception of the state forms the psycho-cultural mechanism of their acts in petitioning for their farmlands and irrigation, and the ＂floating＂ government and the ＂gridlocked＂ market, which have jointly led to the deterioration of the farmlands and irrigation, comprise the structural factors that prompt the farmers into petition. In the final section, the author gives an extended discussion on current academic studies of farmers＇ petition, arguing that the scholars should change their focus from abstract issues to the more concrete and typological studies.
