摘　　要：传统家庭如何向现代转型是家庭社会学研究的核心议题之一。经典的家庭现代化理论将传统视作与现代相对立的概念,忽视了扩大家庭之于现代社会的积极功能以及扩大家庭在创造性的家庭实践中被改造和重塑的可能。中国家庭在快速的现代化转型过程中呈现传统与现代相交融的特征。一方面,当代中国家庭有选择性地保留了扩大家庭密切的代际交往关系和互帮互助的家庭功能;另一方面,它逐渐抛弃了传统扩大家庭对等级、秩序和权威的强调,并有效吸纳了独立自主和平等互惠的现代精神。不应将这种传统与现代相交融的混合家庭模式简单视作传统向现代变迁过程中的过渡形态,也不应将之简单视作“压缩型”现代化过程中的特殊家庭发展阶段。中国当下的家庭模式很可能在未来相当长的时间内持续下去,并继续发展演化。The transition of traditional families to modern families is one of the core issues in the field of family sociology.The classic theory of family modernization conceptualizes tradition as antithetical to modernity,overlooking both the positive functions of extended families in modern society and their potential for creative transformation and reconstruction through innovative family practices.Chinese families,during their rapid modernization,exhibit characteristics that integrate traditional and modern elements.On one hand,contemporary Chinese families selectively maintain the close intergenerational relationships and the family function of mutual support in extended families.On the other hand,they have gradually abandoned the traditional extended family's emphasis on hierarchy,order,and authority,effectively incorporating modern principles of independence and equality.This mixed family model,which integrates traditional and modern elements,should neither be simply viewed as a transitional phase in the evolution from tradition to modernity,nor merely as a special stage of family development within a"compressed"modernization process.The current Chinese family model is likely to persist and continue evolving in the future.
