商品簡介

Rapid economic and social transformation in rural China has aroused enormous scholarly interest at home and abroad. However, a systematic study of this new mode of resource distribution is to date still underdeveloped; and the complexity of resource allocation in the present-day peasant society of China has not been surveyed as an independent theme. This book presents an effort to look into issues relating to the allocation of income, opportunities and assets in a village society; and thus, tries to shed light on the agent and mechanism of resource distribution in the post-reform era.

作者簡介

Xiyi Huang received her PhD from the University of Leeds, U.K. in 2001 and currently works as an Asian Studies Librarian in the Leeds University Library. She has published a number of articles on gender, labour migration, kinship, and rural development. Her research interests include poverty alleviation and institutional changes in rural China.

名人/編輯推薦

"In this fascinating book on inheritance patterns in rural north China today Huang argues that marriage is no longer a transaction between families, but a moment at which resources are transferred to the young, leaving the elders in many cases impoverished. Her book will be crucial to understanding changing patterns of family life in rural China today." ~~~ Henrietta Harrison, Professor of History, Harvard University

 

"Dr Huang’s book provides a fascinating account of resource distribution in two very different Hebei villages during the late 1990s. She examines the dynamic interactions among kinship practices, local custom, state policies and market opportunities and shows how institutional arrangements for marriage, household division, old age support and social networking influence and are influenced by very localized structures of political economy." ~~~ Andrew Kipnis, Fellow, Contemporary China Centre, The Australian National University
