东乡族宗法文化论

本文分析了东乡族宗法文化的表现形态、主要特点及其成因 ,并在此基础上提出了复合型宗教性宗法文化的概念。作者认为 ,东乡族的宗法文化既受伊斯兰教的深刻影响 ,又具有中国传统宗法伦理思想的一些基本特征 ,因此它实际上是二者交互作用形成的复合型的宗教性宗法文化。虽然这种文化也存在于西北其他信仰伊斯兰教的民族中 ,但它在东乡族中表现得尤为明显 ,并与汉族的宗法文化形成对照。本文的研究为西北少数民族的宗族研究提供了新的视角 ,并在一定程度上与汉族宗族研究形成对话

On The Patriarchal Culture of the Dongxiang People

Based on analysis of the main forms, characters and causes of the patriarchal culture of the Dongxiang people, this paper puts forward the concept of compound and religious patriarchal culture. The author holds that the patriarchal culture among the Dongxiang both came under the profound influence from Islam and had some basic characters of the traditional Chinese ideas of patriarchal ethics. In fact, it is the interaction between them that resulted in the compound and religious patriarchal culture among the Dongxiang. Although this culture also exists among other northwestern Muslim groups, its expression among the Dongxiang is particularly striking and contrasts with the patriarchal culture among the Han people. This study may provide a new angle of view for the research of the patriarchal culture among the northwestern Muslim groups and form a dialogue with the lineage studies of the Han people.
