当代中国乡村社结合中的工具性圈层格局——基于桥村田野经验的分析

在分析当代中国（乡村）社会结合的基本特征时，已有研究策略主要是对“差序格局，，概念饰以新的限定条件或对之进行再解释。但循其内在核心机理进行新的概括，亦值尝试。在此视角下本文认为，与相对封闭的传统乡土经验不同，当代半封闭的乡土经验使得熟人社会中村民间的共同感弱化，乡村社会结合具有鲜明的、以核心家庭为基础的实利化倾向，从而在总体上形成了乡村社会结合中的“工具性圈层格局”。

The Instrumental Multi-layered Structure in Social Unity in Contemporary Chinese Rural Areas - Based on Field Analysis in Qiao Village

The main strategy so far adopted in the analysis of the cardinal features of social unity in contemporary Chinese rural areas is to add new constraints on the notion of ＂hierarchical order＂ or to re-interpret it. This author suggests that a new summarization via its core principle is also worth trying. From the new perspective, it may be seen that, unlike traditional rural society which is basically closed, modern semi-closed rural society has weak- ened the feeling of commonality among villagers of long acquaintance. Rural social unity demonstrates a striking trend of cashing in on nuclear families. As a result, an ＂instrumental multi-layered structure＂ has in general been formed in rural social unity.
