农民“种房”的行动理性——对W市S村的个案研究

本研究考察郊区城市化过程中的“种房风”现象,选取了W市近郊一个行政村为个案,进行田野调查,主要以访谈法,辅之以观察法和文献法来收集资料;从“种房”现象主体主观的角度,考察农民“种房”成风的原因。研究发现：农民“种房”是非现实需要的行动选择;选择“种房”主要是基于超额补偿效用,也有经营和增加收入效用、心理平衡效用、情感归属效用;农民“种房”行动是主观上的目的理性行动,且有形式理性和实质理性的特征;而农民“种房”行动理性的诱因是种种政府因素,这是种房现象成风的根本内在原因。本研究的结论认为,更深层关注和研究的问题是政府应如何调整自身的行为。

The Rationality of Peasants' House Growing:A Case Study of Village S in City W

his study examined the “house growing heat” during the urbanization of the suburban areas through a field investigation of a selected village in the outskirt of City W. The data were collected mainly via interviews supplemented by observations and documentations. From the subjective angle of those who were engaged in “house growing,” the researchers looked for the reasons why the peasants were keen at “house growing.” The study found out that the peasants’ “house growing” was an action choice not out of their actual needs but mainly out of their desires for surplus compensation, business operations, higher incomes, psychological balance, and emotional belongingness. The trigger of the peasants’ “house growing” rationality was the government, which was the radical internal cause of this “house growing heat.” The study concluded that more concerns and research should be directed to how the government was to adjust its own behavior.
