Overview
Focusing on a Century of Rural Transformation, Unveiling the Two-way Interaction Between the Nation and Rural Society 聚焦百年乡村变迁,透视国家与农村社会的双向互动 "The Passing of a Giant Ship: Macro History and a Small Village" brings together 11 exploratory essays written by Professor Wu Yi over more than a decade. Adopting dual perspectives of history and anthropology, the collection focuses on the political and social transformations in modern and contemporary Chinese rural areas. Spanning from the decline of traditional villages and rural reconstruction around the mid-20th century to post-reform practices such as villagers' self-governance and tax-and-fee reforms, the author employs field research and case studies to unveil the two-way interaction between state power and rural society within the framework of "planned social change." The work examines how the state has reshaped the countryside from the top down, and how villages, in turn, have influenced broader historical processes through their own cultural and behavioral logics. 《巨轮驶过 大历史与小村庄》汇集吴毅老师10余年间撰写的11篇探讨性文章,以历史与人类学的双重视角,聚焦近代和现当代中国农村的政治社会变迁。从传统农村的衰败、20世纪中期前后的乡村重建,到改革开放后的村民自治、税费改革等政策实践,作者通过田野调查与个案分析,揭示国家权力与乡村社会在"规划性社会变迁"中的双向互动国家如何自上而下重塑乡村,村庄又如何以自身的文化与行为逻辑反作用于宏观历史进程。
