内容説明
This collection of papers highlights the research achievements in the field of Chinese Anthropology, particularly those of Mainland scholars. With sophistication and sensitivity, the authors examine the reproduction of traditions in post-Mao southern Fujian, surveying lineages, religion, status of women, and other aspects of the cultural life. The politics of traditions and their relevance to local identities are also discussed. It is crucial to note the dynamic nature of traditions that are reproduced by different agents. The state is officially against traditions that are ""superstitious"", but the changing economic and political situations after liberalization provide much scope for toleration and negotiation. Paradoxically, official attempts to control ""superstitious"" traditions actually contribute to their revitalization. Thus this book's articles are essential reading not only for understanding Fujian traditions, but also for appreciation of the larger socio-political and cultural forces that have importantly shaped them.
