生命之迷与社会超越性：中国西南景颇人不可言说的痛、想象与口舌鬼

本文讨论了21世纪以来影响中国西南景颇人生活和社区走向的几个事件。这几个事件都有自身的逻辑，是主体选择和社会整合的结果，但在并置个体生命的起伏恩怨和变幻的社会历史后可以发现，这些事件呈现出无名和无关联性。这种“无”跳脱了自我和逻辑，逸出了结构和规律，成为生命的迷茫与贪欢以及社区的焦虑与新方向。对“无”的处理方式体现出社会超越性和生命之迷，凸显于旧结构将消未消、新结构将生未生之际，人在其中悬置伦理，可能迈向社会超越性，脱离集体表象控制，从而创造全新的社会事实，也可能陷入茫然、无所适从而又无所不用其极的生命之迷中。

The Mystery of Life and Transcendence of Society: The Ineffable Pain,Imagination, and Spirits for Public Opinions among the Ethnic Jingpo in Southwest China

This paper discusses several events that have shaped the lives and communities of the Jingpo people in Southwest China since the 21st century. While a single event has its own logics as a result of subjective choices and social forces, but being placed side by side with life time events and social history, it can appear anonymous and irrelevant. Anonymity refers to the unspeakable pain, inexplicable sentimentality and nostalgia, not in words, but in tones and eyes, and in the atmosphere and temperament of the entire community. Anonymity is manifested as a new disease that is incurable and has not yet been named. Disconnection stems from the breakdown of the relationship between man and land, from the increasingly dysfunctional marriage system and dissipation of the moral world. The old gods left but the new ones have not yet arrived. People are dominated by desires but unable to fulfil them. This "nothingness" brings confusion and decadence of the people, and anxiety of the community. The handling of "nothingness" reflects the transcendence of society and the mystery of life, underscoring a period when the old structure is disappearing and the new one is slowly burgeoning. It is a time that people are subjected to moral suspension. Thus, to understand the flow of events and erratic life experience, we need to ground ourselves on a structural-functional way of thinking, however, no less importantly, we also need to investigate the entanglement between people's desires, feelings, effects, motivations and their societal surroundings.
