乡村人类学 (Rural Anthropology)

本书以一个中原乡镇为个案，关注了传统宗教及基督宗教在乡村都市化这一社会进程中的兴衰浮沉，及其带给人们的启示。作者选取乡村都市化的视角，解读改革开放以来的乡村社会转型，并透过人类学的田野调查与历史学的文献研究，结合文化主位与文化客位的方法，对这一时期乡土中国的宗教信仰及其动态发展进行了"深描"与社会－文化功能分析。以此为基础，作者系统考察了乡村都市化与宗教信仰变迁的内在关联，探究了宗教信仰在乡土中国发生变迁的深层原因与未来走向。 The book takes a rural town in central China as an individual case, focusing on the rise and decline of traditional religion and Christian religion during the social process of rural urbanization, and in which what enlightenment was brought to people.

Based on above premises, the author has systematically inspected the internal relations between rural urbanization and religion transition, explored the underlying reasons and future trends of region transition in Chinese rural areas.
